Damien Jurado - Denton, texas lyrics
[Damien Jurado - Denton, texas lyrics]
She walked in with sadness in her eyes
I could tell she'd been
Sleeping with the stars
"Well hello I'm dawn"
"Yes I've seen you around"
"I just live down from here"
She has a dad she doesn't know
Who sends her letters with no return address
"I don't know his name"
"He don't know my face"
"I am better off this way"
On the weekends I drive her into town
In a car that I borrowed from my mom
She makes hotel beds where the sidewalks end
And I wait for her to come home
Please come home
The one day she finally stops coming around
My best friend said she probably
Moved out of town not a letter was sent
Not a phone call was made
And I hope she comes back here someday
I could tell she'd been
Sleeping with the stars
"Well hello I'm dawn"
"Yes I've seen you around"
"I just live down from here"
She has a dad she doesn't know
Who sends her letters with no return address
"I don't know his name"
"He don't know my face"
"I am better off this way"
On the weekends I drive her into town
In a car that I borrowed from my mom
She makes hotel beds where the sidewalks end
And I wait for her to come home
Please come home
The one day she finally stops coming around
My best friend said she probably
Moved out of town not a letter was sent
Not a phone call was made
And I hope she comes back here someday
