The heat of Texas in May

Does little to warm the cold memory

Of you... and Wisconsin



The sadness I feel on this day

No one can Show Me a way

To comfort this boy from Misery

As pain still resides with my heart

And you… in Wisconsin



Searched for you in the flesh

Drunk and disorderly mess

Twas I, as I flashed back to you

I stayed true and blue



With memories I was a mad man

A sad man

A bad man

In Cajun country



Alone, in a room full of people

Each with their own agenda in plain view

My mind could only think of you

Only stay blue

For my world hath no other color



I used to be the last one to leave

And the first one to fight

But not anymore

Now I just finish my drink

And walk out the door

To take my memories of you in the night

With me they forever blind my sight like staring in the sun

I think of us, when we were one

As I turn the door key I know it won’t be long

Til in my dreams I see you

With me… I’ll hold you in my dreams, together as one,

While you sleep there without care…in Wisconsin
