KENTUCKY

Lyrics

On a cold December dawn
And it's cold in your heart
I would be the one to say
That when it's cold in your heart
Put the keys in the car
Yeah start a brand new day

We've been waiting on our mothers to say
That we're doing things their way
We've been waiting on our fathers to look our way
Look our way

So come back to me
Tell me what you see
Not what you need me to be
But who I am
Come back to me
Right where I stand
Between the two of us
A woman
A man

I sit and dream and you drive on
Into the bleeding heart of the dawn
Thinking of poetic things to say
The sunrise never seemed so long
And words never seem so wrong
As when we've got something to say

We've been waiting on our mothers to say
That we're doing things their way
We've been waiting on our fathers to look our way
Look our way

Come back to me
Tell me what you see
Not what you need me to be
But who I am
Come back to me
Right where I stand
Between the two of us
A woman
And a man

Come back to me
Tell me what you see
Not what you need me to be
But who I am
Come back to me
Right where I stand
Between the two of us
A woman
And a man

Come back to me
Come back to me
Come back to me
Come back to me
Come back to me
Come back to me
