skies have brightened since the early rain
and down in chicago it's a first down
atlanta in front of carolina
they blow their whistles and sound like birds
it's been a long afternoon
he feels like he's open for the first time
i been asleep since i can remember
and while i was out it got so cold

i think i have lost
something i knew so well
i think i forgot
where i came from

when she left i was not so concerned
with her absence, but rather i feared
in the sOuLs of her sHoEs,
all the little rubber ridges
:the mud she'd track in when she returned
to be honest, i forgot she was gone
like so many white rooms erase the bourbon
but tonight after winds so fast i spun
seeing is believing and she's back home

i think i have lost
something i loved so dear
i think i forgot
where i came from

One Shot, Two Shots,..,Three, Four Five--
...well it's cold out here, we gotta' do Somethin' to stay alive,
One Shot, Two Shots,..,Three, Four Five--
...an' i'm talkin' in my sleep

i think i have lost
something i knew so well
i think i forgot
where i came from
