As always
I stop to speak
Some girls like to say
their piece
As always I turn to you
Don't understand
what you're doing and
Light up this town
Grow weary and back down
It's such an amazing
sight to be found
Little sister
leaving town
Says the poet
I won't grass
Some things are
better left and not
taken to task
I guess I knew
she was a rose
She knows what hurts
and how to hold
If your daddy
he turned 'round
Let the grass around him
scream the sound
I'm so sorry
for these tales
you're telling
Sometimes you
can't account
Light up this town
Grow weary and back down
It's such an amazing
sight to be found
Little sister
leaving town
Sometimes it's absurd
A minor triumph
when you hear the words
I'm just trying
to stake my place
No real fears
upon this face
And my wishes nobody says
All the sighing
when I cross the days
I'm just holding
back for you
Sometimes that helps to
Light up this town
Grow weary and back down
It's such an amazing
sight to be found
Little sister
leaving town
