Thinkin' 'Bout You (Live)

Thinkin' 'bout the people that we used to be
Late night thinkin' 'bout you and me
Thinkin' 'bout the yellow haze twilight past
Thinkin' 'bout you first and last
To the end of the line where my hopes were dashed

Thinkin' 'bout the river and the way it unwinds
Led me to you through forgotten times
Think of our affair and how it all fell flat
Just to leave me thinkin' wonderin' where you're at
Thinkin' that I gave ya what I should of held back

Thinkin' of your smile in the raging storm
Your eyes had the sparkle of a newborn
I think of your caress and your skin so soft
The moon in the sky like a quarter through cloth
Memories like these are hard to shake off

Thinkin' 'bout things that used to be
Thinkin' and wonderin' if you're thinkin' 'bout me
Thinkin' 'bout things that might have been
Thinkin' what it means to never hold you again

Thinkin' 'bout the bottle and I think about the blade
Thinkin' 'bout the beauty of the mess I made
Thinkin' 'bout the feel of the tourniquet
I thought I could control it but I lost that bet
You left my heart in danger and my soul in debt

I think about your curves and your endless hips
Think about kissing your ambivalent lips
Love fades away down a sliding slope
Like lookin' through the wrong end of a telescope
Headed to the gallows you were handing out the rope

Thinkin' 'bout the roads and the fields turned brown
Thinkin' 'bout the night before the stars fell down
Thinkin' 'bout so many things I have to do
Thinkin' that I oughta stop thinkin' about you

Thinkin' 'bout the words to a long lost tune
Thinkin' you were mine but I spoke too soon
Thinkin' that I thought I could sing it somehow
Thinkin' that thinkin' doesn't matter now
I just get behind the mule every mornin' and plow
