Once You Love

Somewhere in the district of Ludwigslust, 

Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany.

April 2011.

I knew an old man
who lived all alone

In a sad little house
at the end of the road

He sat on the front porch
in an old rocking chair

And everyone swore
he'd gone crazy down there

But no one comes near
so how could they know

He lost someone dear to him
once long ago

He remembers the laughter
and he still tastes the tears

And he stills calls her name out
after all of these years

You can keep it all inside

You can run but you can't hide

(Steve Earle - Once You Love)
