Colfax Town

from If I Didn't Know Better by Arum Rae

/

lyrics

There's no hope for myself trying to be a good pearl
Tried to walk the line and see the light
But as the sun sets, the lonelier I get

Tried to put my thoughts down
Keep my hands in my pockets
Not to make a sound
Or go down to Colfax Town
Just cocaine and running and howling all night long
A tango with hell but it sure don't matter none
Cause my baby left me in 2001
I haven't see the sun since he's been gone
All I do is watch the moon

So nothings right it's all messed up
I'm lonely and I'm grieving
My conscience hallelujah drives me to thinking
And the good in me to leaving

I tried to put my thoughts down
Keep my hands in my pockets
Not to make a sound
Or go down to Colfax Town
Just cocaine and running and howling all night long
A tango with hell but it sure don't matter none
Cause my baby left me in 2001
I haven't see the sun since he's been gone
All I do is watch the moon

I forgot who I was last night
Who I was and where I came from
It felt good but it didn't feel right
Oh Ma I lost the light

Just gambling and running and howling all night long
A tango with hell but it sure don't matter none
Cause my baby left me in 2001
The stairs don't creak since he's been gone
All I do is watch the moon
