Birmingham

We burned out fast
And we never looked back
But when I close my eyes,
I still see you in that baseball cap
In a cheap motel
Off the interstate
You said you were incomplete
And you were gonna stay that way
You got a way of saying something
That everyone wants to hear
In a way that no one wants to hear it
We drove all night
To Birmingham
And you said you loved me too
But that it wasn’t worth a damn
You got a way of saying something
That everyone wants to hear
In a way that no one wants to hear it
I should’ve gone to Jackson when you called me
I should’ve done a thousand different things
But you don’t make it easy anyway
When I think of you
With your blue jeans frayed
I see the girl I was
And wonder where she is today
You got a way of saying something
That everyone wants to hear
In a way that no one wants to hear it
