I married a woman once upon eternity
Temporarily she was even married to me
I never saw her coming
Sometimes I miss her like a limb
Love will ride in on a whirlwind
Dip on a whim
Now there's someone in the mirror
Can't say what happened to him
Can't see it getting any clearer with a shave and a trim
Whatever happened to her
Hell, the last I heard
She was bikered up and breeding in whatever's left of
Gatlinburg, Gatlinburg
How it hurt cause I heard her last words
Never going back to Gatlinburg
When the blues hits hard
When the missing kicks in
Still pick up a guitar get a couple licks in
Hope she got something to sweeten her deal
Her person to call when they're serving it raw
And all too real
Once I was her person
That was her for me too
They say ain't nothing for certain
It's certainly true
She left so high in the saddle
That it sounded absurd
She dismounted for another satin bridal gown in
Gatlinburg, Gatlinburg
How it hurt cause I heard her last words
Never going back to Gatlinburg'
Gatlinburg
I hope she got the reigns
And she's spangled in spurs
And riding wild into battle in Gatlinburg
Wild into battle, wild into battle
Wild into battle in Gatlinburg

Honey Come Home

We used to live on the ledge
In the throws, in the thrill, in the thrall
Now we always on edge
At just the thought of that fall
Some people happy not knowing
Where the honey come from
We see the honeycomb glowing
We hear the honeycomb hum
And honey come home
I ain't doing too good
Honey come home
I looked under the hood
There's a ladder of shadows
Climbing the rope of the blinds
Rorschachs of shadows
Kaleidoscope in my mind
I ain't succumbing to nothing
But I'm getting sick of this dream
Something is coming
It's picking up steam
And honey come home
I ain't doing too good
Honey come home
I looked under the hood
Honey come home
We sin and repent
Honey come home
It don't make a dent
There's a twin in the window
One in the door
Honey come home
This ain't funny no more
We'll lay down in our spilled blood
Like it was spilled milk
Show your pink heart of pale skin
Where you part all your dark silk
Honey come home
I ain't doing too good
Honey come home
I looked under the hood
Honey come home
We sin and repent
Honey come home
It don't make a dent
It don't make a dent
It don't make a dent
It don't make a...

Son Of Mine

You get to wondering when
If ever, this storm will end
Feels like it might
Never be alright or warm again
Son of mine
You won't always be so bright
Gonna teach you some of my
Small ways to treat the dark and keep it light
'Til something shines
Son of mine, son of mine
Something will shine
Son of mine
In the back of your mind
The monster's already there
But turn round to see what
Turned out to just be a teddy bear
Steady there
Son of mine
You won't always be so bright
Gonna teach you some of my
Small ways to treat the dark and keep it light
'Til something shines
Son of mine, son of mine
Something will shine
Son of mine
I know that shadow
It's the same one I got from my dad
I give you that shadow
That's my bad
My bad
But no son of mine
Gonna have to go alone
I know you're so inclined
Take my advice and wait and see
Shadows outshone
Now run and shine
Son of mine, son of mine
Run and shine
Son of mine, son of mine
Son of mine
