I've wasted my nights, you turned out the lights.
Now I'm paralyzed, still stuck in that time
when we called it love.

I don't know how else to describe him as anything other than a lone ranger.

I drove down R St. by myself at one in the morning, in dire cravings for something topped with sour cream.  Distracted by being unfamiliar with my destination, I didn't see the dog in the road.  The little white pup wearing a little blue jacket.

He ran out to save that pup.  He just ran into the middle of the street, gave it a little push on its bum with his ankle, and the furry little creature trotted away with a bark.

He tipped his hat to me, and went back on his way.  It was the black of night, yet the way that he sauntered off... it was truly as if he walked away into the sunset.

Ease on, cowboy.

Ease on.
