I've got half a tank of gas, sun spots on the dash,
And a shirt that smells a bit too much like you.
I've got a lover I don't love, a heart too tired to bluff
And throne that I just don't think I can use.
Oh, I've been trying to tell me friends that I'm aiming for the fences.
Still I'm heavy with that sense.
Could've been happy in Meridian.
Well, we lost that demon fight one long wreckless night.
When the sun came up I saw had to go.
I've got a lover who don't love me, guess that's just what I deserve, See the symmetry of reaping what you sow.
Oh I've been trying to tell myself that I don't owe no one else.
Still I'm aching with the sense
I could've been happy in Meridian.
And do you miss me, Mississippi?
Did you see how long I stalled?
Oh, I let the engine idle, gave the light an extra cycle.
Then I tore my eyes from your door.
From your door.
Oh, the next time that I fall, let it be hard or not at all.
Pull me up swinging from the dirt and smile along.
Tell me 'bout your kids and wife,
The house, the trees, the tidy life,
We always knew that you would land on.
I won't stay too long, I've learned when to move on.
Just had to see what could have been,
To see you happy in Meridian.
So glad you're happy in Meridian.
