She comes down to | |
Georgia to dance across my kitchen floor, | |
Leavin' black marks on linoleum, a country song on the radio. | |
I am just a rodeo calf with tender feet and sewn on horns and | |
Love is a kindness that | |
I've never known before, | |
I've never known before. | |
She say's “ | |
I'm bound to | |
Carolina to join the kids in ' | |
Truth or Dare'.” | |
And she laughs and says its just a game when | |
I tell her that | |
I'm scared. | |
I am just a dog waitin' at the kitchen door, | |
Love is a kindness that | |
I've never known before, | |
I've never known before. | |
Make it last, make it stay | |
Can you hold on long enough to make this pay. | |
She said,” | |
My daddy was a grifter and | |
I was in my momma's way, | |
So I drifted for a while, because | |
I could not stand to stay.” | |
And she said, “ | |
Love is a kindness that | |
I've never understood.” | |
I said, “I'll give it to you willingly, its something you deserve, | |
Its something you deserve.” | |
And I'll make it last, | |
I'll make it stay. | |
If you can hold on long enough | |
I can make this pay. ' | |
