2 or 3 things I know about her
She likes to stay in bed on Sundays
When we’ve got nowhere to go
2 or 3 things I know about her
She likes her coffee black, no sugar
She in the morning glow
And the third thing I remember about her
Is that she used to love me so
2 or 3 things I know about myself
I’ve seen a few too many movies
That give my heart a stir
2 or 3 things I know about myself
I’ve never been out to the northwest
And seen the Douglas firs
And the third thing I know about myself
Is that Im still in love with her
Memories come rushing back like an open door
Every day I think of her I remember more and more
Little things like seeing sparkles in her eyes
And all the magic in her sighs
I don’t know what to do without her
Now that she ain’t by my side
Morning noon or night
I don’t know what to do without her
Except think of her and tell myself
Put up a hell of a fight
No I don’t what I’ll do without her
Maybe some day I'll see the light

Well I try to get over
And leave you behind
But when I lay with her
You’re still on my mind
How can I love her
The way I loved you
After all of the things
That we been through?
I’m so tired of staring All night night at this wall
I guess every empire must fall
Tell me do you ever
Have fond memories
Of the times that we spent
Just you and me
Or am I just a shadow
A ghost of your past?
I guess it’s true what they say
Good things don’t last
I tried hard to answer to each beck and call
I guess every great empire must fall
Darlin’ I guess that
If this is goodbye
You and me were the plane
That didn’t quite reach the sky
I hope after some time and
Some distance apart
That you’ll turn on a light
And find me in your heart
Til some day you come back and I forget it all
I guess every great empire must fall

I’ve spent a lot of time on my own
And I used to think that I knew myself well
But I feel like I don’t know nothing at all
Since waking up in Hell
My heart it used to beat angry
Thinkin about all the love that I’d lost
But when I met you I ditched my plan
To avoid love at any cost
I used to think I had the high ground
I used to suffer like a saint
When you were around I was in heaven
But I’m burning now since you ain’t
I used to travel alone
Airports and bus stops might have been bare
Although they were packed like sardines in a can
I never held anyone there
You brought me up high to the mountains
You showed me the sunset on the edge of the sea
The watercolor sky that we saw every night
Still burns in my memories
When you came along for a ride
And I knew with you I’d found my way
I’d follow you to the ends of the earth
Just to know that you were okay
We never got our extra innings
It was a shut out or at least that’s how it felt
The season had ended the park had been closed
And I no longer made your heart melt
But most days I sit back and wonder
How did I manage to get struck out
Was there something I coulda done
To try and help ease your doubt
Now some nights I drink myself silly
Some nights I smoke myself sane
And every night when I howl at the moon
I’m calling out your name
