lyrics

There's a slight shadow that's creeping quite slowly
Across all the things that we used to be
You were the candle I cupped in my fingers
Until I surrendered my hands to the breeze

So give me a love to drink down like water
I'll give you a kiss that's sweeter than wine
Give me a love that mixes with whiskey
I'll give you a kiss too good to be mine

I was the daisy that grew through the train ties
You were the engine with places to be
Life in a box car's no life for a daisy
You whispered soft as you sped over me

So give me a love to drink down like water
I'll give you a kiss that's sweeter than wine
Give me a love that mixes with whiskey
I'll give you a kiss too good to be mine

So don't give me a song like sun on my shoulder
Don't light me like lightning with a flash of your face
You know our best times, now, were tracked down by rain cloud
You know our best lightning struck miles away
