[Intro]
"Here's to swimmin' with bow-legged women."
[Verse 1]
Only passing thoughts of times long gone tonight
Nine thousand miles away I hear your songs, but I
I seek the comfort of the bottle
And then I let my mind to wander
To the faces that I knew
And to the places that I went with you
[Chorus]
You told me all your stories
Through the trebled din
But I haven't finished drinking
So please tell them again
[Verse 2]
The brazen head, you overwhelm me with the powers of an ancient spell
Old and the new, they come around to spend their time with you
Ten years I dreamed about you
Now I haven't had a drink without you
A toast for those who've passed
And to the rest let's finish off the glass
[Chorus]
You told me all your stories
Through the trebled din
But I haven't finished drinking
So please tell them again
You told me all your stories
Through the trebled din
But I haven't finished drinking
So please tell them again
[Bridge]
Well, let me tell you about how I've sinned
And all the places that I've been
All the battles that I've lost
And all scars that I have caused
'Cause if there's one thing that I know
It's that all these people, they come and go
So that is all and that was then
But I'll come back and do it again, yeah
[Verse 1]
Only passing thoughts of times long gone tonight
Nine thousand miles away I hear your songs, but I
I seek the comfort of the bottle
And then I let my mind to wander
To the faces that I knew
And to the places that I went with you
[Chorus]
You told me all your stories
Through the trebled din
But I haven't finished drinking
So please tell them again
You told me all your stories
Through the trebled din
But I haven't finished drinking
So please tell them again
