about

The lost soundtrack to the bottom of an empty glass at closing time in a honky tonk bar. It’s classic country in the mode of the male/female, dual perspective duet detailing love gone awry and the cruelty of timing.

lyrics

We had so many chances, no doubt about it
The chemical romance was there for the taking
We each found others to soak our attention
Some demon lovers holding us to account

People saw the making of a humble union
But we were just faking, forever forsaken
Vows they were written, correspondence undertaken
Now and forever you will not be mine

CHORUS
So how I can I find out if it was just that our timing was wrong
All of these years now, sitting back watching you sing those songs

Doors to be left open, a late night sojourn
Distractions aplenty holding me steady
The powers that be conspiring dutifully
Always knowing the answer, could well be wrong

CHORUS
So how I can I find out if it was just that our timing was wrong
All of these years now, sitting back watching you sing those songs

How can I find out if it was just that our timing was wrong
All of these years now, sitting back watching you sings those songs
Sitting back, watching you sing those songs
