Hole in My Shoe (So Long)

Been walking down this road with a hole in my shoe for so long
So long
That's what she said as her tires spat away the dust
The dust
Was in my eyes, I didn't realize what she's done
She's done
Bailing me out, says she can live without the stolen nights
The night
She read that poem, I knew that I was home where I belonged
So long

The wind blows hard and I can't feel a thing in my hands
Her hand
Was all I asked as I knelt with a ring and a smile
Her smile
Faded fast, as I crumpled on the grass in her yard
Her yard
Where her dad refused, cause I didn't share their views and I cried
She cried
Cause I wouldn't change our love was in vain and so wrong
So long

Glass on the road felt sharp on my sole and I ached
She ached
For a house on the hill, if we could just pay the bills we'd be fine
She's fine
Getting a drink, as she laughed with a wink towards the bar
That bar
Where I found her face, I knew my place in her song
"So long"
