lyrics

tell me what's going on with you
I ain't seen hide nor hair nor heart of you
you left for the city and those big bright lights
I called your Momma
She was crying in the night
she said she hadn't seen you since you drifted out of sight

There ain't never been nobody else but you
your lingering kisses, heart-breaking near-misses
no one else but you
14th of February etched into my brain
the very thought of you leaving
tripped off these seven years of grieving
seven years of thieving
seven years of "I can't believe it...."

I picked up the trail only to have it fail
disintegrate in a puff of smoke
every year passed like a shot-gun blast
in my dreams you never spoke
I was terrified to myself I lied
told my friends it was all a joke
those seven years of grieving
seven years of thieving
seven years of "I can't believe it..."

Well I've been trying to find out for myself
if you were dead or alive
the simple misgivings in the way I've been living
that ain't no way to thrive
Got my act together
now the only thing is whether a broken heart can survive
seven years of grieving
seven years of thieving
seven years of "I can't believe it...."
