I Think of You

Storytellers only enjoy the part of life that they can use
I got some sentimental fingers and they're holding on to you
I gotta keep that stuff and alcohol
Yeah keep it there for [?]
'Cause your right hand feels for money
But your left hand feels for [?]
We were young
We were used to winning
Then the baby came on late
Mama got a [?] regret she made
And there I was just a sober king
Yeah fakin' it for our friends
Had a [?] memories when they ran out in the end

But I think of you and I change
Oh, I think of you
You're all the same
No one thinks like me these days
We had a game
You have learned it
We had a name
You have earned it
I am just a thing you had to do
I am just a memory now for you

I am the greatest American dreamer you will ever care to know
Too wise but none the wiser and I'm lookin' for a third to grow
Two houses don't make a home for me
They're just a building and some extra walls
Gettin' pretty good at standin' up but I'm better at the fallin'

She told me softly of immigrants and our numbers were one in ten
Our majority was losing ground and our nation had turned to sin
How our neighbors never lived that close
And [?]
Told me how he lost his generation
I am the eldest of the middle sons

But I think of you and I change
Oh, I think of you
You're all the same
No one thinks like me these days
We had a name
You have earned it
We had a game
You have learned it
I am just a thing you had to do
I am just a memory now for you
