Lyrics

(vs. 1) She was at the jukebox makin requests
5 plays for a dollar's how she invests
Wild Horses, or maybe Mr. Jones

Always made the best of company
strechin closing time to half past 3
never sleep and you're never wakin up alone

(bridge 1) Smokin on the roof till mornin
wished on every single star
"if you'll only grant me one thing - please find a home for this heart"

(chorus) Fall in love again
and it won't be long till i'm comin home
and i'm safe and warm
back where i belong

(vs. 2) Two years later the wish came true
porch swing takin in the garden view
hit some rough spots, yeah but they really try

Seems she's always workin on her social skills
while he's tryin to figure how they're gonna pay the bills
"he means well, mama now please don't cry"

(bridge 2) She should learn to listen better
and he aint as wicked as he seems
where's all that shit gonna get her
after all they're only dreams

(vs 3) Fresh cut flowers and a pint of gin
tear drop danglin off his chin
it's the first one since she passed away

Finally he sees how he played a part
not as much the pills as her broken heart
what he would not give for just one more day

(bridge 3) Gin is burnin as it goes down
he lays the flowers on her grave
dug his own hole in the ground
just one last soul they could'nt save
