Abilene

from Flagship by Justin Stewart

lyrics

i worked away my fears

in the back of a ford

called hope the frontier

and walked it off in the early morning

 

then i met you

when the river was high

throwing old love off the bridge 

crying

 

              with flowers in your hair

              we bought a bus outside abilene

              and with your fingers in my ribs

              i wouldn't have known

              what she was thinking of

              when she was packing up

              thought she was hanging on me

              like i was the edge of the world, no.

 

but it's a grand old plan

save up some money, buy some land

draw some lines in the sand

your bare feet, my bare hands

 

but you blow wind blow

savanna comes and then she goes

out on the road and all alone

there's still some things she left in the van

 

              sun

              summer sun

              where do i hang my head?

              I love you, I could love you, I would love you
