lyrics

When we got to the border I was glad to be safe
and our bags were like led weights as we climbed the gate.
And then you boarded that steel train
as we parted ways an exchange of information I was glad we escaped.

But I never heard from you if you made it back if your daughter knew
the ups and the sundowns i went through tryin to get to you.

And now spring turns to autumn too many times I can’t remember
how to bury the hatchet and to see what aint there.

But I can’t remember your face oh I wish wed never escaped
the ups and the sundowns we went through trying to make it right.

I let the light into my eyes no I won’t lose sight no I know I am right.
