Lyrics

TAMPA

He steps off the bus in Tampa
Rain's cooling the town
So he kills time in a coffee shop
As his smile flashes round
She's enchanted

He comes from the Midwest
Should have been college bound
He charms her from a half day's work
As she sets her apron down
One prayer's granted

CHORUS
He's had too many lovers
She's had friends
This time as the evening ends
She locks the door

Folks are building on the Sun Coast
So he finds a place to rent
The boy who used to cat around
Sees his time now spent
With a lady

He's had too many lovers
She's had friends
This time as the evening ends
She locks the door

So he says goodbye
He's gone a month
She asks where he went
Appalachia
Made good friends
Up and gave away his tent
Lovesick and crazy

One dream sums the others
One touch mends
This time as the evening ends
He locks the door
