Chris Smither - Hundred Dollar Valentine lyrics

rate me

Tell me why years, months are gone

I can’t see anymore

My sun is rising but it just don’t shine

There ain’t no light through my door

I flip my switches but I don’t turn on

I ain’t a flicker baby, I got no juice today

I have a lighter and my carry on

Took the airline to get away

You know it ain’t just my sight that you stole

My house beneath …

My wheels are spinning but they just don’t roll

I’m standing there on my feet

I can’t go out and baby I can’t stay home

I’m crying showers yeah, my minds are hurricane

I called a taxi bout an hour ago

But I think he’s lost in the rain

No mail today, yeah, my phone never rings

Nothing works when you’re grown

My mind is humming, but my heart won’t sing

Baby can’t you please come home?

I got time on my hands, … you on my mind

I got a heart that’s beating like a hundred dollar valentine

I know you told me you’ll be home by 4

But I just can’t take it no more

Yeah, I know you told me you’ll be home by 4

But I just can’t take it no more.
