Lyrics
Gideon
Copyright 2003, Wesley Warren
I don't remember when we met; and I don't recall when it became regret. And I don't remember when we left. And I don't remember why...
We laughed at the shadows and stared at the moon and actually thought that we got close too soon. Shared a last cigarette and howled at the trees and failed to find out what our future might bring.
Misty faded images of a time sense gone; I know what's right, do you know what's wrong? Silhouettes of our senses, now fallen apart; was it a time for shadows or a time for heart?
Hey what am I gonna do, with all of those dreams made with you?
There was a Gideon's message in the motel drawer, so I read the verses and locked the door. And I cried like a baby for my pitiful sins and washed my memory of where I'd been.
