our song

My mom was in that shmoopy/ deep conversation stage of drunken-ness tonight when she asked about me & Chris' song. It's not something that we ever officially declared "our song," but if we had one, this would be it.

So I pulled it up, and we jammed for a minute. It's been a while since I've listened to it. He's actually the one that mentioned it, years ago, said it reminded him of us. I'd have to agree.

Cross Canadian Ragweed, Too Far Gone.

Good mornin California
How long has it been?
I know your sky could help me fly
Out of this shape I'm in
I polished off another bottle
Some old cheap red wine
I'll turn it all back into water for you baby
Just to hold you one more time

Too far gone
Too far gone
Been so long since I've been back home
I'm too far gone

Hey baby what you wearin?
Damn that sure sounds fine
I know I just catch myself starin
Staring til I went blind
Cause you treat me like I'm your someone
Even when no one's around
I'd drop everything I was holdin
To pick up what you're puttin down

Too far gone
Too far gone
I can't explain, it would take too long
I'm too far gone

I know it's been crazy
I know what you're going through
Let me tell you sweet baby
That I'll walk right through with you
You're always there besides me
Whether I'm right or wrong
I know in here without you here
I'm too far gone

Too far gone
Too far gone
Til I sing a brand new song
I'm too far gone

Too far gone
Too far gone
I know I could go on and on
I'm too far gone


(My parents' song
Ashley & Collin's song)

If you got one, what's yours?
