lyrics
I headed up the coast when I lost my mind.
The pretty woman waiting says that I'll be fine,
But I shunned myself, and her in kind.
Living like love isn't love if you have to try.
There's a fog in the valley of her heart.
The moon shines through but it blocks the stars.
I'll never find my way back west,
with this compass pressed against my breast.
I know that you just came here to talk.
What did you think I thought?
That you came here to listen?
Like you remembered I've got an opinion
And you missed it
Doesn't sound like a likely reason for your visit.
Is it?
Winter left me waiting at the five and dime,
Snow sneaking in like it should be a crime.
You read me like a book, broke my spine.
Now I'm staring at the front door like a starting line.
I know that you just came here to talk.
What did you think I thought?
That you came here to listen?
Like you remembered I've got an opinion
And you missed it
Doesn't sound like a likely reason for your visit.
Is it?
