We painted a perfect picture together We sang a song 87 miles long Do you have some kindness for me? Remembering something I heard It hurts when actions speak louder than words Do you have some time for me? A painting of nebraska Afraid as our hearts pray For another day And a day away Did I miss some signs for me? A hug Or a kiss Or a painting of nebraska? It helps me remember the time Its all I have left the memory Is all I have left tearful eyes for someone I left the memory is all I have left to call mine a painting of nebraska The lights are off, the book is closed And everyone who noticed knows What was so wrong with me That you left as I slept silently
