time in bars

arlo mckinley

time in bars that i have spent

i know just where the money went

and now i'm left to die here by myself

i watched you as you walked away

i never tried to make you stay

i just watched and wondered

where it all went wrong

now i've got a story for my friends

i've got a story for my kin

i've got a story about the one that got away

i used to spend my nights alone

and wait for you to come back home

no more wishful thinking

only memories

but lately ever now and then

you run right through my mind again

just to show me everything we could have been

now i've got a story for my friends

i've got a story for my kin

i've got a story about the one that got away

now i've got a story for my friends

i've got a story for my kin

i've got a story about the one that got away

i've got a story for my friends

i've got a story for my kin

i've got a story about the one that got away
