Great Smoky Love
Drumming Bird
Lyrics
I was your rock in your wildest transition
Doctored you up in the worst of your days
So you preached me your gospel when no one else listened
Yes I sat in your pew just to hear what you’d say
Eastern time’s just like a car where the brake lights
Are burned out from stoppin’ one too many times
So you look out your rearview, catch the last of the sunlight
Hope whatever’s down the road is worth what’s left behind
CHORUS
Always turn to sometimes
Sometimes turn to nevers
Temporary goodbyes
Turn into forever
You go sing your Rocky Top
And buy a tighter skirt
And I’ll leave my Great Smoky Love with you babe
And you can decide what it’s worth
I thought of you while all the white constellations
Burned through the black veil hung up in the sky
If those stars persist to be seen through the darkness
Then I sure as Hell can remain in your life
You like to be kissed when we passed by the drug store
Our town’s only traffic light lit up in red
When the yellow bulbs burned you would lean in for one more
But these days I hope for the green lights instead
CHORUS
Eastern time’s just like a car where the brake lights
Are burned out from stoppin’ one too many times
So you look out your rearview, catch the last of the sunlight
Hope whatever’s down the road is worth what’s left behind x3
CHORUS
