four days out of her head again
got distracted by the rain
she'll come back to her american dream
she'll get back on the stage
spent 39 of their best years
cause he'd be waiting in a borrowed rv
for her to say her goodbyes
she got harder playing underground bars
he got wise with small change
good songs made it round the block those days
so people came and they came
no more wishing on american dreams
real life fortune and fame
she moved home the day the news came in
packed their records away
god don't answer for a tyres loose grip
she don't cry for his fate
