If we're both being honest-
I'd really love to see you too
And if we're both being honest-
There's not a day that I don't think of you
But I gotta come clean-
I smoked all of your cigarettes
They helped me to forget the reasons
why you left
She said "I don't have an answer.
I guess I'm not sure what to say.
But that town was a cancer,
And I just had to get away.
That's why i quit the drinks,
And why I ditched the cigarettes
But maybe we could split a pack
if you come out West.
So he grabbed an old guitar
And a book of sounds
Got a tattoo of a flag turned upside down
A suitcase full of word's
That his brother lent him
Back in Chicago
Sold all the 45's
That weighed him down
Used the cash to hop a train and skip this town
And he set out for a new life
With an old flame
Out on the West Coast.
