Last Summer In Omaha
The Christmas lights have all expired
And last year's tree is in the fire
I'll spent the summer in Omaha
With no reason at all
All those years spent on a road
Descending notes don't mean much anymore
A compass no longer shows
You, the true North
Everybody needs a reason to wake up in love
Everybody needs a reason to wake up in love
Smoke and gin it's all pretend
That I don't know there's something killing me
As my friends start their families
I should be happy but I'm grieving
I call you lost but the truth is
I don't know my own way anymore
I see the ones with ambition one
And it's like losing a hundred wars
But I'm too selfish and mean
To give up on the dream
But what is the dream?
You tell me
You tell me
It's a disappearing season my time has come
I'm still looking for a reason to wake up in love
The Christmas lights have all expired
And last year's tree is in the fire
The last summer in Omaha
With no reason at all
