TNOD Fall 19: Sketches

lyrics

Woke up Wednesday feeling slowly
The bed was empty, cold, and lonely
Two oars in the water
I guess she wasn’t just saying, baby one of these days

She took the coffee but left the pot
She took my heart and left me a robot
Two oars in the water
She’s gone

Two oars in the water
whatever happened to that carefree farmer’s daughter
that I used to know?

I saw her weeks later in the cereal aisle
I did the alligator but she didn’t smile, she’s got
Two oars in the water
and she’s moving on - to condiments and hot sauce

And then again at the beer cafe
I sang KISS, afternoon karaoke
Two oars in the water she was unimpressed
when I sang Beth

Two Oars in the water
Doing all the things society says you oughta
and I miss you so, I miss you so

She’s making good time but not having the same
I guess I wish I could take back
all the things that made you curse my name

She’s got apps to track objectives
I took a lap past the shack where we used to live
Two oars in the water, now it won’t be long
until I write another love song

I guess I always knew it would end this way
day drinking while she passed the bar today
two oars in the water, she’s moving on
two oars in the water, she’s gone
