The Rest Songtext
von Lucas Jack

I pulled myself together
And pulled myself apart
Away from what I worked for
And away from Wicker Park
Pulled onto the freeway
And headed myself south
And I′d lose it all again
For the woman I found

I stopped in for a Frosty
Somewhere on 55
Rolling in the U-haul
Got quiet for a while
Half of what I owned
I had to leave at my old house
And I'd lose it all again
For the woman I found


Standing there in her fake fur coat
With her lips so ruby red
Standing there in an ivory gown
Before I knew it I said yes
I do, give you, the rest

I guess I loved that city
A little more than I′d let on
All the streets I walked
And the silly late night songs
All the friends I love
That I won't ever see around
I left it all behind
As crazy as that sounds

Old Town in the summer
And the Brown Line in the fall
Midnight on Milwaukee
And the 5 AM last call
Seeing shows on Tuesday
When the world is sleeping sound
I'd lose it all again
For the woman I found


Standing there in her fake fur coat
With her lips so ruby red
Standing there in an ivory gown
Before I knew it I said yes
I do, give you, the rest

Driving down to Texas
We stopped on 44
For a continental breakfast
And a foggy shower door
Sleeping on the window
As we pulled out of towns
She′s everything I looked for
This woman I found

Standing there in her fake fur coat
With her lips so ruby red
Standing there in an ivory gown
Before I knew it I said yes
I do, give you, the rest

Pulled myself together
And pulled myself apart
Away from what I worked for
And away from Wicker Park
Pulled onto the freeway
And headed myself south
And I′d lose it all again
For the woman I found
This woman I found
