Apologies and Roses
Now I always love the summer on the parkway
And the Springtime in the plains
But the way her eyes bore into mine
I guess they sound the same
I got vision indecision
Obligations on the coast
And my friends tell me to stay with her
But my heart says I should go
I had walls she couldn't weather
I had walls she couldn't climb
Any call would seem to drop along
That North Virginia line
Claim the welts and claim the bruises
Over scars she couldn't see
Somewhere underneath the tissue
I still miss the way you say
That I'm always
Runnin south
That I'm always
Runnin late
That I'm always
Runnin out
Or away
Now that river spans the mountains
All the way to Hampton Roads
And if that bay delays the backlash
It'll be worth its weight in gold
Let apologies and roses
Mask a fear of being free
And you asked me if I miss you
Or if I miss you missin me
Cause I'm always
Runnin south
Cause I'm always
Runnin late
Cause I'm always
Runnin out
Cause I'm always
Runnin out
Or away
Do you believe me when I say I was tryin
To be the person that I thought I should be?
The more I try the less that I like him
Cause that ain't me, darlin
No darlin that ain't me
Pulled the strings off that old tele
I wrapped em round the song
I untangled them to find that I'd been stringing her along
All the time I spent explaining
All the times I couldn't stay
How the voice of my Virginia
Keeps on calling me away
How the voice of my Virginia
Keeps on calling me away
And the Springtime in the plains
But the way her eyes bore into mine
I guess they sound the same
I got vision indecision
Obligations on the coast
And my friends tell me to stay with her
But my heart says I should go
I had walls she couldn't weather
I had walls she couldn't climb
Any call would seem to drop along
That North Virginia line
Claim the welts and claim the bruises
Over scars she couldn't see
Somewhere underneath the tissue
I still miss the way you say
That I'm always
Runnin south
That I'm always
Runnin late
That I'm always
Runnin out
Or away
Now that river spans the mountains
All the way to Hampton Roads
And if that bay delays the backlash
It'll be worth its weight in gold
Let apologies and roses
Mask a fear of being free
And you asked me if I miss you
Or if I miss you missin me
Cause I'm always
Runnin south
Cause I'm always
Runnin late
Cause I'm always
Runnin out
Cause I'm always
Runnin out
Or away
Do you believe me when I say I was tryin
To be the person that I thought I should be?
The more I try the less that I like him
Cause that ain't me, darlin
No darlin that ain't me
Pulled the strings off that old tele
I wrapped em round the song
I untangled them to find that I'd been stringing her along
All the time I spent explaining
All the times I couldn't stay
How the voice of my Virginia
Keeps on calling me away
How the voice of my Virginia
Keeps on calling me away
