North Dakota
Lyricist:Kristina S Delmhorst
I love North Dakota 'Cause you have never been there And the days go on forever And the towns all look the same
And I can ride the back roads And I can walk the main streets And show someone your picture But they would not know your name
This city is so gloomy I could stay in bed for hours Maybe that's why I'm still lying here Asking you for more
'Cause this never would've happened If you hadn't touched my elbow In that steamy crowded car Heading down the western shore
And you take me to pieces Your eye sees my favorite me And I don't know your word for it But you know what I mean
'Cause there's nothing I like better Than to watch you flirting with the waitress And that's the most inspiring thing That I have ever seen
And there's times that you fight it It's just the way I like it And I wonder what I'm choosing I wonder what I'm losing
'Cause at four o'clock this morning You told me the story Of a friend who couldn't stomach All the love that came from you
And oh the straight up Deep hurt of you And I don't think that I can handle Anything that true
And that's why I am leaving And that's why I won't call you Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com I am getting in the taxi Headed for the plane
But I still can feel you breathing Still can hear your fingers play Still can see you Standing in the window pane
And I'm watching your goodbye And I'm trying to cry Guess I'm not built for this load Guess it's back to the road
So now Delaware is tollbooths Virginia is twilight And Michigan's beef jerky In a small boy's hand
And Arkansas' a skinny cop Oregon is purple hands And Flagstaff Arizona Is delirium at night
And I love North Dakota 'Cause you have never been there And the days go on for hours And the buffalo rowing
And I can ride the back roads I can walk the main streets And no I never ask me When I'm coming home
And I love North Dakota 'Cause you have never been there And the days go on forever And the towns all look the same
And I can ride the back roads I can walk the main streets I could show everyone your picture But they would not know your name
I love, I love, I love I love, I love, I love North Dakota North Dakota, yeah
