Tin Roof Yesterdays

Lyrics

Verse 1
Rain falling on the old tin roof
Empty whiskey bottle by the sink
One small table with a crooked leg
I sit and stare
Forget to blink

Chorus
Shadows and memories dance across the floor
Dreams of yesterday that can never be no more
I keep reaching for a hand that’s walked out the door
Shadows and memories
And nothing anymore

Verse 2
Four tall trees by the busted gate
Carved our names in the third from the right
Weeks
Months gone
But the mark stayed
I trace it with my thumb in the fading light

Chorus
Shadows and memories dance across the floor
Dreams of yesterday that can never be no more
I keep reaching for a hand that’s walked out the door
Shadows and memories
And nothing anymore

Bridge
Every little echo calls your name (oh)
Every dropped key feels the same
This house still holds us like a frame
But the picture’s gone
I’m the one to blame

Chorus
Shadows and memories dance across the floor
Dreams of yesterday that can never be no more
I keep reaching for a hand that’s walked out the door
Shadows and memories
I don’t know what I’m living for
