It's just a moment that's lasting too long
Sitting here in the ice storm, with no lights on
No violins, this is my home
And it's not the loneliness that keeps me alone
I got high with the stars
And I drank the milky way
I got all my clothes
And my guitars in the hallway
But I'm not moving out
Or going away
And my world's getting smaller every day
I lost precious people, lost my true love
Went down to Memphis, just to see what I was made of
I play by heart, I don't read no music sheet
And I try to be kind to every one I ever meet
I got high with the stars
And I drank the milky way
I got all my clothes
And my guitars out in the hallway
But I'm not moving out
Or going away
And my world's getting smaller every day
I've taken the back roads
And I've walked the white line
Always knew it may be for the last time
I've thrown open fire-doors
Got paid and gone broke
Seen the dreamers and their dreams go up in smoke
I got high with the stars
And I drank the milky way
I got all my clothes
And my guitars in the hallway
But I'm not giving up
Or going away
And my world's getting smaller every day
And my world's getting smaller every day
