Said she got struck down by love And it's all because Someone showed her what it was Said she got taken by floods And was not proud of The trouble she'd begun Said she got run down by dawn With her name redrawn And left on things she'd be leaning on Said she got swept up in song Left her room light on Though her heart's meant for moving on I've been sewn along my seams Hemmed and mended, hiding everything But courage burns like kerosene And you were far too kind to me Said she's been feeling just fine That she works part-time And still has a couple things of mine Said she's been bathing in wine My sweet Madeline Eyes like yours are hard to find And I've been told a million ways Not to sit and burn down all my days Waiting for your heart to change But something quiet says to stay And I've been dreaming where you've been I mapped out rooms that we'd be drinking in Latin roots and motor inns Just say you'll come home, little wind
