illusions Songtext
von Lefty Parker

Even the most powerful ribbon won′t allow my heart to tether
I tried to tie it back together

I looked to the sky for a reason, but the answer was shrouded in illusions
So I turned to my sojourns calling

That's how I′ve come to be this way
The seasons worn on my face
Not a dime to my name

Now here I beg for directions
Not sure on where I stand
Last I knew, I was drinking on Union


With some folks I met at the depot
At some point I heard a chime
Crossing out the window, I saw—

It was Carrie, my sweet Carrie
I called to her as I ran
But the phantom moved too swiftly for me through the city

Even the most powerful ribbon won't allow my heart to tether
I tried to tie it back together

How can I release you, this piece of you
How can I release you, this piece of you
How can I release you, this piece of you
How can I release you, this piece of you
How can I release you, this piece of you
