I can see you dancing
in a storm
Like a lightning bolt
caught in a still frame
and this photograph
is now my only souvenir
my forgetful mind
has become my greatest fear
You were here one day
and then gone the next
You stole my heart
and then you left me for dead
But theres something about you girl
and at night it keeps me awake
Was there something I could of done
to make you stay
cause the rains still
pouring down
in Gainesville
that tired town
that stole you away
when I need you most
right now
It always comes down to a choice
and you've got the right
to make up your own mind
but I heard you left
with just a Bible and a gun
well don't you know thats
how the west was won
and the rains still
pouring down
in Gainesville
that tired town
that stole you away
when I need you most
right now
your not here
and I'm not right
and I just can't fall asleep tonight
and these words I write
won't reach you anyhow
I pray to God
don't let me forget that day
all the ??? picture taken in my brain
I pray to God
don't let me forget that day
I pray to God I pray to God
I pray to God
I pray to God
don't let me forget that day
Or the smile she was wearing
on a pretty face
I pray to God
don't let me forget that day
I pray to God I pray to God
I pray to God
no, no , no, no
no, no, no, no
but the rains still
pouring down
in Gainesville
that tired town
that stole you away
that stole you away
your not here
I'm not right
I can't seem to fall asleep tonight
and the words I write
won't reach you anyhow
No!
your not here
I'm not right
and I just can't fall asleep tonight
these words I write
won't reach you anyhow
