a song while you're away - tyler childers lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
up in your nephew’s room playing on his cousin’s guitar
i wrote a song for you
you have done drove off with everything i need
my box and my tumbleweed

[pre-chorus 1]
i picked it up on the way to flagstaff years ago
i was hanging on to everything you had the grace to show

[chorus]
you were young and you were hungry
lord knows i was hungry too
we were both flat-out starving
for something worthwhile to lose
you were my bread and i was your honey
up against the dark red wine
trying to hold on to the lovely
through the bitter of our times

[verse 2]
looking over the hill at the lights of your hometown
i wrote this song for you
thinking of the way we met:
a girl home from school and a boy just p-ssing through

[pre-chorus 2]
i got a job as a cut man at a house just down the road
i had never been to town before and i didn’t know a soul

[chorus]
i was young and i was hungry
lord knows you were hungry too
we were both flat-out starving
for something worthwhile to lose
you were my bread and i was your honey
up against the dark red wine
trying to hold on to the lovely
through the bitter of our times

[bridge]
agate white wedding dress
turquoise on your ring
upright b-ss and violin
as you walk the aisle to me

[chorus]
i was young and i was hungry
lord knows you were hungry too
we were both flat-out starving
for something worthwhile to lose
you were my bread and i was your honey
up against the dark red wine
trying to hold on to the lovely
through the bitter of our times
