A House In Nebraska

Labored breaths and bed sores, sing it to me all day long
 ♪
 When the aching sound of silence used to be our favorite song
 ♪
 You and me against the world, you were my man and I your girl
 We had nothing except each other, you were my whole world
 Then the day came and you were up and gone
 ♪
 And I still call home that house in Nebraska
 ♪
 Where we found each other on a dirty mattress on the second floor
 ♪
 Where the world was empty, save you and I
 Where you came and I laughed, and you left and I cried
 Where you told me even if we died tonight, that I'd die yours
 ♪
 These dirt roads are empty, the ones we paved ourselves
 ♪
 Your mama calls me sometimes to see if I'm doing well
 And I'd lie to her and say that I'm doing fine
 When, really, I'd kill myself to hold you one more time
 And it hurts to miss you, but it's worse to know
 That I'm the reason you won't come home
 But I still call home that house in Nebraska
 ♪
 Where we found each other on a dirty mattress on the second floor
 (Where I needed you, and I need you still)
 Where the world was empty, save you and I
 Where you came and I laughed, and you left and I cried
 Where you told me even if we died tonight, that I'd die yours
 (So I died there under you every night, all night)
 You know, I still wait at the edge of town
 Praying straight to God that maybe you'll come back around
 I cry every day and the bottles make it worse
 'Cause you were the only one I was never scared to tell I hurt
 And I found photographs of our school, on the day we met
 I thought that you were so beautiful, it was love, I guess
 And you might never come back home, and I may never sleep at night
 But God, I just hope you're doing fine out there, I just pray that you're alright
 And I feel so alone, and I feel so alone out here
 ♪
 I feel so alone, I feel so alone out here
 ♪
 And I feel so alone without you, I'm so alone out here
 
 I feel so alone, I feel so alone
 I'm so alone out here without you, baby
