Country Song

I tried to pull it all from out of thin air tried to hold you close, bring you much nearer my arms came up empty, like the hope inside of me you never gave me a reason, a reason to believe I hung on with hunger, you starved me to death that cold, long winter when I could see my breath I couldn't see you through those frost glazed panes or in the desert spring when the monsoons came I tried to make sense out of nothing at all you never tipped your hand and you dealt the cards I finally pack my bags so I could move on from what was never here, from this sad country song
