We used to walk there
all the time. Up by the
railway line. I try to
go there but it's hard
End up in my backyard
I'm here alone with this
guitar, the paint is
peeling off and I can
see every scar. Got
half a song I wrote
for you and I got
half a bottle left
to get me through
Been waking up in daydreams
Waking up to the fact that
I'm still here and I know
you won't be. I'm heading
for another lonely year
Most nights you'll find me
underneath an empty Midwest
sky half drunk and fading
where I'm drinking with
your ghost and I'm
watching planes go by
And nothing changes but
the time. Get stuck on
the same few lines I
could just write how
it went, but that's
now this one ends
(Repeat Refrain)
Been waking up in daydreams
Waking up to the fact that
I'm still here and I know
you won't be. I'm heading
for another lonely year
Most nights you'll find me
underneath an empty Midwest
sky half drunk and fading
where I'm drinking with
your ghost and I'm
I'm finding out I don't
do very well alone
but I know that you're
not coming home
I'm finding out I don't
do very well alone
but I know that you're
not coming home
