IDLE HOURVERSE
There’s a place down the street

Where my friends congregate
And when we sit on those bar stools
We’re not alone
10 am the lights are on
Beer’s cold, the whiskey’s strong
And we’re drowning those memories
One by one
CHORUS
You can meet me at the idle hour
Where the juke box plays all those country songs
If you’re tryin’ to hang on

To a love that’s dead and gone
With too many reasons not to go back home

VERSE
The neon lights are bright
Even tho it’s past midnight
And the band’s packed up and moved on
Stare at the clock on the wall
Bartender says last call
And I start missin’ her most of all

CHORUS
So, you can meet me at the idle hour
Where the juke box plays all those country songs
So if you’re tryin’ to hang on
To a love that’s dead and gone
With too many reasons not to go back home
Too many reasons not to go back home

Been laying low, my head downHaven’t stopped to look aroundIn a while, I’mHolding on to something
But I can’t tell you what
Left me thinking you were
All that I had
Oh I wanted you, so bad
Oh let me goOh let me go
Spent so much time pretendingThat I didn’t mind when you’dLift me up so high,Just to say goodbye againCan’t pretend that I didn’t feel the thrillBut you left me
Lonely still
Oh let me goOh let me go
And everytime I’d try
Oh I couldn’t catch your eye
And I
Grew so tired of the
Shadow by my sideThat ICouldn’t help butPack away my timeAnd reclaim, what was mine
Oh let me goOh let me go
Oh, too much time on my hands
Couldn’t seem to keep you backOh, too much time on my hands
And now all I can do is ask
Oh let me goOh let me go x3

Rain drops fallI’m going to lose controlWhy don’t you just pay smallAttention to me
Hear me callLook at my broken soulOut of this deep dark holeCome and rescue me
Can’t you see that I’m reaching out for youTake my hand and we’ll try something new

I felt tallAble to break a wallThought we had touched the goalJust you and me
Now I’m smallYou chose to let me fallLike an old used dollYou’ve abandoned me
Can’t you feel that I’m still loving youIn my dreams we were meant to be two
Raindrops fallI’m going to lose controlWhy don’t you just pay smallAttention to me
Hear me callLook at my broken soulOut of this deep dark holeCome and rescue me
Can’t you feel that I’m still loving youIn my dreams we were meant to be two
Can’t you see that I’m reaching out for youTake my hand and we’ll try something new

Lay back just for an hourAnd hold on ‘till I get there
You say you feel you’ve got no powerJust let me in and I shall take care
Your wings seem broken you can’t unfold them
Your pain’s unspoken you can’t move on
Cool down let me embrace youBreathe in and welcome the air
You say you’ve got none to hold on toJust lean on me we’ve got so much to share
Your wings will open just dare to move them
All pain that’s spoken is half overcome
You see life’s just like a flowerWaiting to bloom if handled with care
Cheer up, no need to cower

Go on you‘re almost there
Your wings wide open allow you to move againTo live in hope and then fly away
