Lyrics
Lying on the floor
I met an angel in a mountain town with whiskey on her breath
An old cracked pane exposed the line she'd been towing on her shelf
She took me in and made me warm she tasted just like rye
And I had secrets I meant to keep was just too tired to lie
She sang for me sad and right in time
She laid with me and helped me through the night
When she cried, she'd cross her heart and pray for more
At the crossroads of our loneliness lying on the floor
Years move faster every one, seasons come and go
Like a ring line on a lover's finger never lasts too long
Evenings spent on bar room floors in each others arms
Dancing by jukebox light to sad Don Williams songs
She sang for me sad and right in time
She laid with me and helped me through the night
When she cried, she'd cross her heart and pray for more
At the crossroads of our loneliness lying on the floor
The bar shut down the night I found my angel she had flown
Morning broke and I woke up slow hungover and alone
The tavern choir sang Hallelujah on her way
And my whiskey bottle fortune says we'll meet another day
She'd cross her heart and pray for more
At the crossroads of our loneliness lying on the floor
