oh Kathleen
At 2am when I was cold and sad and lonely, Away by Miss Kathleen Edwards was sheer perfection. That whole cd is very wonderful. I will go see her April 7th. She has such lovely sleepy eyes. *sigh*
"i remember the way driving home late
speeding all theh way alone in the rain
i was rehearsing a part
from down at the bar
my mouth smelled like a drink
we were laughing, I think
i've been away.
Do you pick up your phone? Do you check your mail?
Do you answer your door even if it's late?
I don't know who to call.
I don't know who to write
and i think I forget what your face looks like
i've been away.
Do you think I've changed?
I swear I never tried
Memory is a terrible thing when you use it right
I was rehearsing a part
from down at the bar
my mouth smelled like a drink
we were laughing, i think
I've been away."
- I've Been Away, Kathleen Edwards
