The World Is Yours - Ashley Henry Version

de Ashley Henry

I threw up this morning in Christiansburg, VA
I drove down from PA, slept in my van
I can still taste the whiskey from the last fool that kissed me
And the people who miss me, I can count on one hand

He missed by a mile, a Paso Fino caballo
That girl in Ohio with hair black as coal
She was charmed for a moment by a circus clown poet
And boy did he blow it when she let him go

Reckless hearts
The tattered and bruised ones
Slightly confused ones
The ones holding stools down in bars
They show up and find us
And gently remind us
To not be ashamed of our stars
Or who we are

I've been saying I was sober since the 6th of October
But all that was over when I heard him say
There's a friend you've been missing with a fifth in the kitchen
We started sipping and he faded away

Reckless hearts
The tattered and bruised ones
Slightly confused ones
The ones holding stools down in bars
They show up and find us
And gently remind us
To not be afraid of our scars
Or who we are

So just live in the rhythm
And their rhymes when you get 'em
And the notes when you miss 'em
Could you drink all night long
In all of his running
He showed me something
That dying an't nothing that I can't prove him wrong
