Story Behind The Song

Written back in 2008. Not sure what inspired it, but the lyrics tell a tale.

Song Description

A song about love gone wrong and acquiescience into the very habit that brought the relationship to an end to begin with. A classic-sounding country drinking song for a new age.

Lyrics

It's the brink of summer's end
and all I've been doing
is trying to dream away
everything we had been.


There was a time and place for me,
and you were at that time
and at the right place
for where I had wanted to be.

So I'll hit that open road and I will
just get lost yet again
But if lady luck could have her say
I'd wind up in a place
Where I'd pull the bottle from your mouth
and you could
finish your sentences
finish your sentences

I'm sure the people are talking now
I'm sure they have been for a while
As I think about the words, the ones you left out
as you winked and smiled.

But now there's someone on the line
and she's been there for some time
But she don't know to say the words,
That you once knew how best to recite.

So I'll drift into a haze,
dream away another day
But if lady luck could stop her laughing
I'd wind up in a place
where I could pull the bottle from your mouth
and you could
finish your sentences
finish your sentences

Now as summer draws to an end,
all I've been doing
is trying to drink away
everything we'd been.
