Missing pieces |
i spent all day staring al a leaf i know my time here is brief i'd like to get some details down before i move on to another town
i met a man, he lost both arms got 'em caught up in her charms she look the kids and the color tV he said, "I wish she'd taken the rest of me"
CHORUS: this Travelin' life, well it ain't no good i'd quit it honey, oh if i could a puzzle to me why i even care the missing pieces are everywhere
he drove to dixie to hush his mouth she started talkin', like to wore him out but they found love 'neath the southern stars and some bruises and some scars
he sees her on that back porch swing and i believe he would do anything stand all night in the pourin' rain to wash her memory from his brain
CHORUS: this Travelin' life, well it ain't no good i'd quit it honey, oh if i could a puzzle to me why i even care the missing pieces are everywhere
a false move here, a stumble there a box of letters and a lock of hair that's all that's left when i turn out the light i count the missing pieces every night
CHORUS: this Travelin' life, well it ain't no good i'd quit it honey, oh if i could a puzzle to me why i even care the missing pieces are everywhere
CHORUS: this Travelin' life, well it ain't no good i'd quit it honey, oh if i could a puzzle to me why i even care the missing pieces are everywhere |
