Empty Blue Shoes - Lyle Lovett

Empty blue shoes

And empty brown bottles

It’s the VW blues

Bare feet to the floor

You just might die

When you make colorado

And the plaines lie behind you

Sweet Texas behind you

And your mother won’t hold

You forever

And forever won’t hold you for long

And that girl with the face of

An angel

SHe’s the girl with the face that’s

Long gone

Now those empty blue shoes

They sit by the highway

And those VW blues

They saw 'em pulling away

You know she kissed me goodbye

The last time I saw her

But what she intended

She never would say

And you lover won’t hold you

Forever

And forever won’t hold you for long

And that girl with the face of

An angel

She’s the girl with the face that’s

Long gone
