Find Yourself

Hey Ida, I think I mighta said something wrong to you last night, because you seem to be outta sorts with me, and I’d like to set things right. I ain’t never been the kind to talk you know about the love on your shelf.

In losing him, you will find yourself. Hey find yourself. Life does not weigh and yet you say it carries heavy on your back. But it seems to me it’s not the love you seek, it’s the love that you lack.

I can hear them in the halls when they whisper about your pills on the shelf. In losing him, you will find yourself. Hey find yourself.

I know, I know about Friday nights alone. We’re off to see the show. Grab the key to the cabinet cause I ain’t that gone yet. Stumble through what I said.

I got a secret I think I keep it on the TV set all night. Never like to be all alone with me. I’m thinking we’re a lot a like. I’ve read all of your books and your letters, covered dust upon the shelf.
