Green Car (Acoustic Version)

Saw you drive away
For the last time
I swayed when I should have said
Words become scripture
When accompanied
By the chords of your voice

And now I'm left with
Hollow songs
Written by a fool in love
And when I see a
Green car go
It makes me long
For your serenade
For your wise church debates

Ruptured hope emphasized
By your absence
No word from you
I elope

And now I'm left with
Hollow songs
Written by a fool in love
And when I see a
Green car go
It makes me long
For your serenade
For your wise church debates
For your smiling gaze
For your admitted mistakes

Fake it along
As though the sun
Is gleaming from my hardened soul
Carrying a load
Too heavy for your green car to hold
So I'll just keep it with me

And now I'm left with
Hollow songs
Written by a fool in love
And when I see a
Green car go
It makes me long
For your serenade
For your wise church debates
For your smiling gaze
For your admitted mistakes
For your love of open spaces
For your strive for higher places
For your hate for those who hate
For your open-minded faith
Got to let your green car go
