Abe Abraham
Old Ford Truck
In the marketplace on the village square
I came through today for the town fair
And it’s been so long, I don’t know anyone
And the window face is another stranger
In an old hotel, with your aching eyes
And a ghost you know is waiting for you
And it looks like me, but he doesn’t leave
And you pull the shade like you used to
Take off your coat and lay down by me
I won’t ask why you didn’t say
Goodbye to me
I know
On a moonlit porch, you were quiet then
And we danced all night, and you loved me
And I didn’t ask what you hoped I would
We were too young then, I probably still am
Take off your coat and lay down by me
I won’t ask why you didn’t say
Goodbye to me
I know
In an old Ford truck that my grandpa bought
We were driving up on the dirt roads
With the AM dial playing country songs
And the moon feel down through the cornfields
I know
