Promenade Lyrics

Baby I remember the way you held my hand

I tried my best to tell you, but you wouldn't understand
Now I think about you always and to myself I say yer name

The way we were when forever was just another day

I traded yer sweetness for my loneliness

Yer confidence for my own regrets

Yer simple grace for this disarray

That's my stock and trade while you promenade

Sometime I'm singing to the ceiling
Sometimes I'm talking to the walls

Sometimes I forget this feeling

Ever mattered at all

But in the evening when the sun's down

There's sadness on its way

Like a ghost that knows my address
And where I lay

Somehow my losing just comes natural like a southern democrat

Nostalgia haunts my memory and stands in my path

You promenade to the city, you promenade to the shore

The gentlemen say that you are pretty and promenade round the floor

Now I think about you always and to myself I say yer name

The way we were when forever was just another day
