Lyrics

Kentucky 

On the bricks of red and white, lit by streetlights, shining through 
Early summer raindrops falling, on Kentucky streets I knew
How a feeling oh so ancient , like it’s pressed within my bones 
I’m surrounded by a million, but I still feel so alone.

There were passing people walking , hand in hand in love and free
There were tires on wet asphalt, restaurants closing early 
There was life in every holler of thunder talking from the sky
I was sitting on a bar step, I was trying to stay dry

But I’ll wait.
Yeah I’ll wait
I wait. 
Yeah I wait.

I woke early in the morning, I drove south about 30 miles. 
It was raining like the heavens were falling from the sky 
Yeah my mother she was waiting, somehow we were crossing lines. 
As the feelings from a lifetime, flooded in with guilt and lies.

I just want to be the person, that I always let her see
But it ain’t me it’s just the one, I think that I gotta be
To receive the love I long for, but I’m scared if I reveal
Myself with all my flaws, she’ll no longer care for me

But I’ll wait. 
Yeah I’ll wait
I wait. 
Yeah I’ll wait 
I wait 
I’ll wait
