lyrics

Once I had a boy with fire in his heart
Once i had a boy whose life just couldn’t start
I took his heart, held it in my hand
And tried to give it back cuz I couldn’t love no man

CHORUS
who are you now
Who was i then
Two hearts asunder again

We tore a road of fire Straight across the sky
Miles of broken hearteds were always asking why
One day our charcoal paintings burned us both black
I left us at old folsom lake and i could not look back

CHORUS

I heard she hit you
I heard you hit her back
I heard that you kept drinkin
I never meant for that

CHORUS

Climbing railroad trestles and shooting off our stars
Sometimes the kindest gestures leave the hardest scars
I may never lay eyes on you again
No matter how much time goes by i’m still your friend

CHORUS
