MISSOURI (reworking of instrumental track by Silvio Vinci)
You wrote Missouri on a matchbook,
Drew a star beside your town.
“If you ever cross the river,
I’m the third house further down.”
Now I’m standing by your mailbox
With a speech I won’t get through.
There’s a curtain moving softly,
Then the screen door—and there’s you.
Let the evening take its time,
Pull your chair up close to mine.
I got good at walking away—
Now I’m learning how to stay.
You put water on for coffee,
Moved the papers from a chair.
Didn’t ask about the silence
Or the years I wasn’t there.
There were peaches on the counter,
There was rain out in the yard.
You were talking ’bout the weather;
I was letting down my guard.
Let the evening take its time,
Pull your chair up close to mine.
I got good at walking away—
Now I’m learning how to stay.
You said, “You can stay till Sunday.
There’s a fence that needs some paint.”
I said, “I can start on Monday.”
You just smiled and cleared my plate.
Let the evening take its time,
Pull your chair up close to mine.
I got good at walking away—
Now I’m learning how to stay.
That old matchbook’s on the table.
My keys are hanging by the door.
