"Macon If We Make It" lyrics

"Macon If We Make It"

Broken Hearts
They're mending in fits and starts
I heard you crying
I heard you crying on the phone

It's understood
I'll never be well and good
Airplane's grounded
And the hotel's boarded up

I couldn't make it back to you
Even if I wanted to
The hurricane makes landfall
And they serve another round
It's Macon if we make it
Savannah if we drown

The bar starts to sink
And all my ears do is ring
I heard you crying
All I hear's wind howling now

I couldn't make it back to you
Even if I wanted to
The hurricane makes landfall
And they serve another round
It's Macon if we make it
Savannah if we drown

I don't know if we were in love
I just know it wasn't enough
Got caught in the storm
And the water is rising
It's rising
It's rising

Broken Hearts
They're mending in fits and starts
I heard you crying
But you played it off just fine

I couldn't make it back to you
Even if I wanted to
The hurricane makes landfall
And they serve another round
It's Macon if we make it
Savannah if we drown
