about
Written in the Texas sunshine while crying.
Simple words & chords, strung together at once, in a present moment.
Lonesome Doves recorded this song last during their recording sessions in the same place Willie Nelson recorded Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain.
lyrics
Like ice on a sad skating rink
cold hearts
a thousand starts
always on the brink
Another frozen expression
caught between the blinks
At the cusp
why can't I grasp
hold out my glove
just to catch
Hold on
Awake till dawn
Crying
Warm tears in sunshine
are all I have to keep me warm
Let it out, roll on down
hurting this way does no harm
Warm tears in sunshine
I'm crying
And time won't tell me nothing
it'll only dry them
Warm tears in sunshine
I'm crying
