Album: Greetings From California (2014)

Empty Spirits

Scanning the bar, just empty spirits
Turn to say hi, nobody hears it
Terrible lights, but they got good music here

Feeling so strange from a night with a stranger
Bent a few rules but never found danger
Missing the nights when we used to sit right here

I'm still waiting, same old playlist,
I can't take this song
When Lilac Wine comes on
I lose it, damn this music
Why's that feeling gone
When Lilac Wine comes on

The first time we met, I still remember
You sitting alone one night in December
But it wasn't cold, cause they got good weather here.

So we drove downtown to a place we had heard of
Waited in line, even though it was empty
You said it's a dive, but they play good music here.

I'm still waiting, same old playlist,
I can't take this song
When Lilac Wine comes on
I lose it, damn this music
Why's that feeling gone
When Lilac Wine comes on, comes on

I'm still waiting, same old playlist,
I can't take this song
When Lilac Wine comes on
I lose it, damn this music
Why's that feeling gone
When Lilac Wine comes on
Comes on, comes on
