Haggard Thoughts Part 1:.

Ok. I've got a lot in my head, but I'm not sure I can get it all out about this. First, a song I've been listening to seems to reflect the situation and some of my thoughts and feelings. The lyrics alone don't do it justice. Go buy it. amazing.

You were the only Girl for me -
More or less, on my knees.
Love songs in minor key.
You were the only girl for me.

Too much to see, too much to recall
I lived my days in soundwaves and the rush of alcohol
You're the only girl for me.

All these places I'd only intended to visit
Somewhere I got lost and became a permanent resident
You were the only girl for me

If mercy is a drink
I could use me some

Growing old to be forever young

I remember when my eyes first met yours
I sold the farm to buy the store
You were the only girl for me

Bones get cold and brains forget
Tear drops explode by a fireplace called regret
You were the only girl for me.

If mercy is a drink
Well pour me some
growing old to be forever young

come as thou art
come as thou ain't
it's gonna take more than a new coat of paint
You were the only girl for me

Roll back the tape to our first kiss
you never signed up for any of this
You were the only girl for me

Car crash does us fatal harm
won't you carry me to Jesus in your arms
you were the only girl for me

well if mercy is an ocean, let it roll on
growing old to be forever young

more or less on my knees
love songs in a minor key
you were the only girl for me
