I'm Cranky, cause I got a reason to be Been so long since I ever felt glee This is for the time I wasted wishin' for you and me N' this is for ignorin' my plea. But still,
I'd Doodle out your name in the stars so gladly I'd Doodle out the love for you I've always had I'd Doodle out my heart on time's shifting sand beach I'd Doodle out my soul without you incomplete
Bridge One: I tell ya, my memory ain't what it used to be But I can still tell the story of what happened to me To tell the tale, try not to miss details Of the one I still love beyond the pale
Verse One: When we first met, my gaze froze on your sight It was love that I felt, heart flutterin' all right The next day you were gone, but I remember that night The time we spent together simply changed my life
So I gave it a shot, like a romantic snot I took off at a trot but it was all for naught I never caught up, still I thought of you a lot I had the hots for ya, but my heart got a clot
Most of my life spent, filled with discontent And so the years came, and so the years went I've seen the whole world, and I enjoyed it then But I couldn't find you anywhere, I knew what that meant
I made an ass of myself searchin' low n' high Now I just want to retire by myself and die With memories of you faded in my mind After most of my life I'm tired of trying
Bridge Two: So I went after her. Who wouldn't? I loved her The sound of her voice and the touch of her fur Many years later the feelings they still stir Make my breath quicken, and my heart flutter
Verse Two: I got your image,* I got your picture When I look at it,* I get a stricture In my heart,* same as before I threw the scrimmage,* I threw the scripture
I chased across the countryside cause I knew you were the one But after many years n' faces finally I'm done I let you slip away, and so I spend my days overcome With all the thoughts of what we coulda become
When I think of the life I wasted, I give a slight pause It's hard to believe the time I spent with you as the cause Burnin' shame is what feel, how did it go this far It's so bizarre how you left n' crushed my heart
Endeavor, sadness of the bitterest flavor The memories are the only things that I still savor Hold that, thought cuttin' like a razor Glacier, drink the whiskey and the chaser
