As She Passes (Nocturne) - Levi Patel

She hates goin' anywhere in my old truck She says: It's always muddy and it rides so rough And there ain't no graceful way to climb up in a dress Yeah, I'm about as country as she gets. I might get her on the lake to fish with me If the water's smooth and the sky is blue with a nice, cool breeze But anything we catch, I'll have to clean myself 'Cause I'm about as country as she gets. She'll slip off a pair of heels Walk barefoot across the field Climb up on a fence just to be near me Sometimes I think that horse still scares her half-to-death Yeah, I'm about as country as she gets. She likes bein' within spendin' distance of a mall Havin' enough bars to make a cell phone call Put her in a crowd and she's right in her element Yeah, I'm about as country as she gets. But she'll slip out on the porch sometimes When that sun's low in the sky Pull up a rockin' chair just to be with me Until that first big June bug buzzes by her head See I'm about as country as she gets. Yeah, I'm about as country as she gets. She hates goin' anywhere in my old truck...

Farewell nightmares I am free Welcome streams of sweet dreams that settle over me What lies out there? No one knows The tide could bring in anything, so steady as she goes Steady as she goes I can feel her As I lie awake But she's back home, still waiting alone when morning breaks Post-war novels Keep us alive & I know she'll be dying to see me when I arrive Hey, dear sister How are you? I've long to see you ever since you made your stage debut We always knew You would be The most angelic actress this dramatic world would see & The critics do agree Several states lines Keep us apart But don't loose sleep 'cause I'll always keep you in my heart Crashing white caps Keep us alive & She knows I'll be dying to see her the next time I arrive What lies out there? No one knows The tide could bring in anything, so steady as she goes Steady as she goes Steady as she goes

Take what you can she said Let the rest go up in flames We'll be alright i bet Its the faces in the frames that kept the house up anyways Take my hand she said Thats all you gotta do We'll build it up again Its amazing all you got when you got nothing left to lose Still have you beside me Still have hope inside me now And i wont quit riding on No i was born to ride it out Woah woah There's only one thing that you got to know We just shift the wings We're gonna roll And that will lift you up We'll lay you low That's it that's all Straight ahead Steady as she goes We will carry on she said Its always been this way you know We'll lead the way with this Sometimes the strongest hand is the one that can let go I still have you beside me I still have hope inside me now And I wont quit riding on No i was born to ride it out Woah woah There's only one thing that you've got to know The winds will shift The waves are gonna roll Then we'll lift you up and lay you low Thats it thats all Straight ahead Steady as she goes Woah woah woah Steady as she goes (Take what you get she said) Steady as she goes (Take my hand she said) Steady as she goes (We'll be alright she said) Woah, woah Steady as she goes Woah woah Theres only one thing left you got to know The winds will shift The waves are gonna roll Then we'll lift you up We'll lay you low Thats it thats all Straight ahead Steady as she goes Honey take my hand we're headed home Well they never trust the darkness or the door Well the sun is never far behind the storm Thats it thats all Straight ahead Steady as she goes
