lyrics

I met you some years ago, thirteen or so
When your blue eyes still had something in their holes
Now, there's nothing, just a husband you barely know
You were solid, you were on it
You still had red dirt on your soul
But then college fell right on you
And we broke
You turned with northern eyes
I mean, you cut your hair so short
Of your accent and your absence
I took note

Don't you say never, you can come back again
You can come back again
Balance of heart, a balance of hand
So, you forgot the place, I will learn you again

You got caught up in his books
You got caught up in his coke
And he spun ya, til you were spinnin on your own
You live in pirouettes and you danced right off the shore
Don't tell me from time to time you don't look back at our door
Cause you used to sing with me but now you go six other ways
You were priceless in a white dress on your birthday
Now, you're only worth the money that you make

Don't you say never, you can come back again
You can come back again
Balance of heart, a balance of hand
Distance tore us apart, I will swing til the end
Cause I know (yes, I know)
A southern boy will love you, thick or thin
A balance of heart, a balance of hand

Intellect is a dancing girl that no one will take home
She'll spin you around the room until your friends all start to go
Til you realize that it's just you on that road
You can always, honey, always bring it back home

Don't you say never, you can come back again
You can come back again
Balance of heart, a balance of hand
I know that we fell, darlin, it's how you land
Cause I know (yes, I know)
A southern boy will love you til the end
With balance of heart, a balance of hand
