Still No. 2

Still though you took my car
Still I know you won't get far
You'll be sitting still

Still when a mile has passed
Still you'll run out of gas
You'll be sitting still

I've lost count of the hours and I've lost track of the time
And you know why darling I lost my watch
In fact I lost a lot of things when you went away
What are you gonna do with all my junk
But still I cling to the mem'ry of when we used to go together
Why I must have gone with you for
Ain't that somethin' I can't even remember what I went with you for
But I do remember the nights when we'd stroll hand in hand
And I'd look up at the sky and recite your favorite poem
Starkle starkle little twink oh yeah that reminds me
I've been readin' so much about the evils of drinking
That I've decided to give it up so I quit reading
Now I don't drink anything stronger than pop
Of course Pop will drink just about anything

Still I wish I had a still
And then every day
I'd run my still

This flame in my heart is like an eternal fire
It's the worst case of heartburn I've ever had
And I haven't been able to put out not one little flicker
Not even with all this beer I mean tears
My friends think that I'm crazy and maybe I am
But I'll carry this torch just as long as I can
But you know that one of these days it's gonna get awful short
And if I don't drop it well someday you may just come home
And find that I've made an ash of myself

Still though I tote this torch
Still it's beginning to scorch
I can't hold still
Ooh that smarts ouch
