lauderdale (lyrics by scott haskitt. music by haskitt, dale)

you showed me something here
burned out, left your mark on my ear
so please just listen well
cause i've been a little off on my timing this year

there's a fine line now
between you and me and the hearts we keep buried so well
nothing to find now but an honest hand
and september's gonna see you change

every time i lay it down
you just smile and say 'well we'll see'
so i'll just let myself out of lauderdale
there's some places only you should be

it's a big enough world not to find
ever one another you will need
it's a dream full of scars and space and time
but i won't ask you where you'd rather be

every time i lay it down
you just smile and say 'well we'll see'
so i'll just let myself out of lauderdale
there's some places only you should be

it was mid-july, you'd been broken down
love sold you out, left you a little cold
and sore enough to believe in a stranger
but bright enough to burn right through me

did i show you something here
when i burned out did i leave my mark on your ear
if not, please just listen well
cause i've been a little off on my timing this year

every time i lay it down
you just smile and say 'well we'll see'
so i'll just let myself out of lauderdale
there's some places only you should be
