LYRIC FOR SALE

By That Beach Sound Cartel

[Verse 1]

She slammed that ol’ screen door

‘Bout quarter after ten

Left tire marks in my driveway

Like she weren’t comin’ back again

I watched them taillights disappear

Till they melted in the night

Poured myself a little bourbon

Turned off every light

[Verse 2]

Her coffee cup’s still sittin’

Right there beside the sink

Lord, I’ve replayed that last goodbye

More times than I can think

That little porch swing’s empty

The dog’s still watchin’ too

Even he keeps lookin’

Like he’s waitin’ here for you


[Pre-Chorus]

Granddad always told me…

“Boy…

Don’t make decisions…

After midnight whiskey.”

Lord…

Wish I’d listened.


[Chorus]

Morning Would…

Cool her down

Turn her truck back around

Before this old Texas town

Ever knew she’d gone

Morning Would…

Put us back somehow

Back where we belonged

Before this old heart learned

How lonely nights are long

[Verse 3]

Rooster started crowin’

Sun come crawlin’ through

I swear I heard your Chevy

Like it always used to do

Pulled them curtains open

Heart beatin’ out my chest

Turned out it was old Earl

Deliverin’ somebody else’s mess

[Bridge]

Funny how a lonely night

Can last a hundred years

Funny how one empty pillow

Can drown a man in tears

I kept tellin’ myself…

“Just hold on…

She’ll come around…”

[Final Chorus]

Morning Would…

Fix what Friday broke

Take back every hard word

Every mean ol’ thing we spoke

Morning Would…

Cool her down

Bring her back somehow

Lord…

I was sure it would…

But this mornin’…

Morning… Wouldn’t.

[Outro]

Coffee’s cold…

Porch swing’s still…

Dog quit watchin’…

Guess he knows…

Sometimes…

Love don’t come home.

Me…

I’m still hopin’…

Maybe…

Tomorrow… Morning Would
