Hemingway's Songbird

on my table there's a cold fresh martini crumpled papers an old cigarette I spend my days pouring my life onto the pages tales of lost love and ancient regret I still wear the locket you gave me for my birthday well I kept it though I'm really not sure why some days I swear I hear you singing through it to me a river of words I drink from when I'm dry CHORUS so many reasons not to stay so many chances to walk away nothing sadder than nothing left to say I kept holding out hoping you might change you went on breaking my heart anyway yeah you I guess it's what you do the Sunshine Inn motel outside of Houston matchbook said "the place it never rains" where you swore you would always be my songbird and I lost myself to you in those three days CHORUS these days you'll find me down at Harry's it's a dive bar where I like to spend my time it's dark inside the food ain't much to speak of but it's peaceful and the people there are kind
