She'll be in Denver by the break of dawn Her calloused heart, her regal charm Will grace the city in his open arms And his bed come tonight But me I'm stranded down on Silver Street Just throwing bottles at the Delta Queen She passes slow like your memory, makes the bend And floats out of sight Austin, Texas, mattress on the floor We'd buy some grass from the kid next door We bitch of love as if it was a chore but we made it to ease both our minds First time I lost you was a mean curveball Thrown in Las Vegas down a hotel hall Why we stuck it out, man, I can't recall Seems my honesty's always on trial And I never once called you baby, I never once called you anything I never once called you baby I always thought you were more to me And I saw him coming with his suit and tie His hair slicked back looked a lot like mine But that was years ago and over time Lost my scissors, my comb, and my style Letras de cancionesAnd how he watched us at the table there As we caught up on our when and wheres Our escapades, our life-ain't-fairs and how you'll be leaving with him tonight And I bet he calls you baby, I never once called you anything Oh I bet he calls you baby, I always thought you were more to me So if I'm breathing on some solid ground And what went up the river comes back down Maybe we'll meet again next time around And talk of those vagabond times Keep all your stubbornness and pretty smile Keep all your dreams about that unborn child Keep both your feet out of the wedding aisle And I'll keep you in the back of my mind From Letras Mania
