Lost Songs (Live)

Lady Nature whispers in my ear
When I have no pen and paper her rain is like tears
Or I'll court a woman that can't stay in my life
She'll sing a faithful tune but she's not my wife
Words that heartbreak was telling me
A handful of coins dropped through the grate of memory

They're just lost songs
When you're gone

The Jack of Hearts ain't playing for ticket stubs
Lily, Rosemary, or the 10 of Clubs
And if you knew the story before hanging day
Well you might have seen what went down in the cabaret
Now as I sit here and wait for the words to dissipate
As Father Time lays my mind in another state
I'll be over you and on a clean slate

They're just lost songs
When you're gone

Shooting stars and a field trip to mars
Chardonnay in the park by the bay
The lads were truckin' north and I couldn't stay
So fly across the Tasman Sea
And think of me when you're lost in the Philippines
Cause the sound in your mind and the light that you feel
Its just my love turning like a wheel

They're just lost songs
When you're gone
