If I left tomorrow, you'd remember today
As something that happened to you yesterday
When love wasn't new but it still hadn't faded
If I left tomorrow, you'd remember today
When my Granddaddy drank whiskey he was sinking or flying
Papa spins an old record that reminds him of dying
When my Ma' got the fever, she'd take two sleeping pills
She said You
got
to
feed
a
heartache,
starve
everything
else
Your lips sure shook the first time you said it
The wind comes to steal me Mama, don't think I'll forget
Nothing was wasted here, nothing was sold
We just traded freedom for something harder to hold
A tornado took the house, but left behind a decade
Someone comes to smooth out the lines put in your face
If I left tomorrow, you'd remember today
As something that happened to you yesterday
When love wasn't new but it still hadn't faded
If I left tomorrow, you'd remember today
