On my way home, eyes on the road, ears on the news
Fifteen past nine, the talk show ends, now it's Monday blues
His guitar weeps, I recognize that raspy key
Resentful notes, a tale of faded harmony
In minor E he burned my veins and pleased the crowd
In major C his truth and sins were now avowed
His voice was flanged, note after note singing regret
A painful song that ever since I can't forget
When you ever wonder
If I still remember
After all those years we've been apart
Yes, my heart surrenders
Whispering every memory
Torn into your bitter lullaby
Riff after riff the old six-string would cry out loud
His fingers bled until it couldn't make a sound
A silent break, Lucille replaced, the bass still grooves
A one-man show, the house is down singing the blues
When you ever wonder
If I still remember
After all those years we've been apart
Yes, my heart surrenders
Whispering every memory
Torn into your bitter lullabyn my way home, eyes on the road, ears on the news
Fifteen past nine, the talk show ends, now it's Monday blues
His guitar weeps, I recognize that raspy key
Resentful notes, a tale of faded harmony
When you ever wonder
If I still remember
After all those years we've been apart
Yes, my heart surrenders
Whispering every memory
Torn into your bitter lullaby
