lyrics by Kevin Max
soulful sweet, sky blue jeans
a golden haired girl with romantic dreams
all alone inside her head she sleeps
the western scenes of the rodeo queens
knights of Isles on shining steeds
in her mind to quell the violent screams
and the jig is up in this lonesome town
when the lights go out and we wander around
until we find a way to disappear
and I stumble in and I take my seat
on a solitary bench in the summer heat
We wait for the priest in the back as I whisper in your ear
Melissa – Ill Listen
Melissa – were gonna get away
Melissa- I’ll Listen
Melissa – together we’ll find a way
Sunday school books in haunted nooks
heavy eyed, judgmental looks
all alone we go against the grain
we believe in God we believe in faith
we believe in hope even when it rains
but we’ll never fit with their plans of antique pain
and the jig is up in this lonesome town
when the lights go out and we wander around
until we find a way to disappear
and I stumble in and I take my seat
on a solitary bench in the summer heat
We wait for the priest in the back as I whisper in your ear
Melissa- I’ll listen
Melissa were gonna get away
Melissa- I’ll listen
Melissa- together we’ll find a way
