Lord

Langhorne Slim

This life goes on since you've left me

but lord, it don't need to

and i'm just thinking about you gal

as you forget me

you were my only truth

and i'm wondering how I could have been so taken

mistakin our love for blood

seems I was fakin

a man's heart is his own

and only he can break it

i'd start all over alone

if only I could take it

now time takes its time to pass on by me

you won't find me in no places of old

in my mind don't rewind the times of you smiling

darling it's a crime you left me so cold

and I can't trust myself

with this hell I am accepting

I stumbled and I fell

still hoping you'd come protect me

I tried to forget you

that was just a reminder

you've turned a world full of shit

you made it a little bit kinder

so take my breath, god, take it away

good bye take it

cuz know lord what was saved

to think that it is you god

that fools kneel and pray

that I found my true love

now she's buried away
