C.B. Radio

We came easy through some twist of fate
But you could never acclimate
To such a sorry golden state

Now I admit I miss you more than I could say
Oh it was such a New Year's Day
When you swept our bones away

But ain't that just like you
To go deny the truth
Babe you knew we were driving the scenic route

We were skeletons beneath Nevada skies but
We were out of our heads for sometime
The window silver stained
Casting off, maligned
Nevermind
See I tried
Yeah I try
And I'm trying again
And again
And again

And all the doubt crept in somewhere around Rhyolite
Still held your hand all through the night
Although I knew that I was right

Why don't you listen to what your heart tries to say
I lifted you above the grey
Still you took your light away

Cause if it just weren't right
Why would your heart tell you twice
Y'know you're still the dreamiest girl
I've ever seen in my life

Oh and I still held out hope
Until the last time that we spoke
Because I know my heart's a joke
But why would you turn out the light
If you're so scared of shadows

And for the most part I just wish you said goodbye, cause
I was never the least bit unkind
In spite of everything
You slipped into the night
Bear in mind
That I tried
And I try
And I'm trying again
And again
And again

Oh don't you hate when I try

Yeah and maybe I've got it all wrong
Oh since you've been gone
Cause all my thoughts of you sound like this song

Come on darling
Please don't take your love away
So soon
