"November Nights" lyrics
"November Nights"
You say that you're restless, you say that you know me too well
You've seen all my best and you've heard all the stories I tell
You think you've been taken for granted, you're probably right
Still I remember a November night
When the dawn on your doorway shone white with frost
And the soft love that always began with the touch of your hand
And recall the mornings that tossed your hair in the wind
Time's made it meaningless, I'm insecure, you can tell
But why am I leaving unless time had only meant well?
There's nothing left now to excite you, no reason to try
Still I remember a candlelit sky
And the summer surrounding the ground where you and I lay
And though we were always alone with our secrets known
We both were aware and afraid our closeness might end
My love's like a dancer, she weaves through the dangers complete
Her well rehearsed answers with rational reasons for feet
And if it decreases or ceases to always seem right
I'll just remember a November night
When the dawn on your doorway shone white with frost
And the soft love that always began with the touch of your hand
And recall the mornings that tossed your hair in the wind

Mary Gauthier - "I Drink" He'd get home at 5:30, fix his drink
And sit down in his chair
Pick a fight with mama
Complain about us kids getting in his hair
At night he'd sit alone and smoke
I'd see his frown behind his...
John Prine - "I Remember Everything" I've been down this road before
I remember every tree
Every single blade of grass
Holds a special place for me
And I remember every town
And every hotel room
And every song I ever sang
