Everything That Won'T Come Back

Do you know 
Where the wind blows 
How do you go
To where the wind blows

On accompany bound 
North Carolina found
Down the coast 
Out the window of a greyhound 
Day dreams 
Just won’t let me sleep sound

“Life’s a gamble 
At terrible odds
If it were a bet 
How would you take it” 
Up at the lighthouse
Lake Superior, I’m here
Skating across the ice
Minnesota’s lovely winter song
Downtown Duluth
Across the red bridge on my own

It was a five card draw
Cocaine in an empty mans straw
Little blind short
It was big blinds bluff
Inordinate of a pack of Newport’s
Fell in love waving goodbye at the airport

Welcome back home
Were you lost or alone
Because you’re no one 
Just as were when you  left 
Did you find your fun
Hitchhiking all by yourself
I made it back to peace 
On a coarse to no where 
Fresh out of  Love Joy, Georgia 

Do you know 
Where the wind blows
How do you go
To where the wind blows
