Thax Douglas #1

Illinois, I could put you in a poem
Illinois, I could write you in a song
But the ink keeps bleeding through the paper
Illinois, I could put you in a poem
Illinois, I could write you in a song
But the ink keeps bleeding through the paper
So now I must move on

Illinois, I am your favorite stepson
A Santa Claus Sears Tower in your sky
A poem for every band who stood before me
I just needed three more minutes of your time

I want to be a legend in my lifetime
A street sign of my name where I am from
Illinois, I really do love you madly
But you and I both know I don't belong

And I do thank you for the love you've shown me
Take care of my parents and my books
I'll send postcards from the great state of Texas
Forget me not, Thax Douglas

Forget me not
Forget me not - best wishes
Forget me not
Forget me not - best wishes

Illinois, I could put you in a poem
Illinois, I could write you in a song
But the ink keeps bleeding through the paper
So now I must move on

Forget me not
Forget me not - best wishes
Forget me not
Forget me not
