Last Six Dollars

Well the lights go off

And the curtains go down

Like an old romance

Without any sound

You don't get the story but the heartache still comes through

And right or wrong

It never comes up it seems

It's just taken for granted by the girl of your dreams

And I guess I was taken for granted too

Spent my last six dollars on a bottle of whiskey

Drove out past your place but that was just wishful thinking

You were there

You had somebody new

And I sat and I watched the sun set on the hill

Funny how you're sure the time's standing still

While the world keeps moving around and around on you

And you must have heard

The sound of the truck

Cause the lights went back down

And I saw you get up

But I drove away

Tell me what else was I to do

And I wish we all had just a tiny compartment

A little black box where we could put our heartaches

'Cause I'd lock mine in and I'd give the key to you

Spent my last six dollars on a bottle of whiskey

Drove out past your place but that was just wishful thinking

You were there

You had somebody new

And I sat and I watched the sun set on the hill

Funny how you're sure the time's standing still

While the world keeps moving around and around on you

Spent my last six dollars on a bottle of whiskey

Drove out past your place but that was just wishful thinking

You were there

You had somebody new

And I sat and I watched the sun set on the hill

Funny how your'e sure the time's standing still

While the world keeps moving around and around on you

And the lights go off

And the curtain goes down

Like an old romance

Without any sound

You don't get the story

But the heartache still comes through
