Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Up in your nephew's room

Playin' on his cousin's guitar

I wrote a song for you

[Verse 2]

You have done drove off

With everything I need

My box and my tumbleweed

[Verse 3]

I picked it up on the way

To Flagstaff years ago

I was hanging on to everything

You had the grace to show

[Chorus]

You were young

And you were hungry

Lord knows I was hungry too

We were both

Flat out starvin'

For something worthwhile to lose

[Verse 4]

Lookin' over the hill

At the lights of your hometown

I wrote a song for you

[Verse 5]

Thinkin' of the way we met

A girl home from school

And a boy just passin' through

[Verse 6]

I got a job as a cut man

At a house just down the road

I had never been to town before

And I didn't know a soul

[Chorus]

I was young

And I was hungry

Lord knows you were hungry too

We were both

Flat out starvin'

For something worthwhile to lose

[Chorus]

You were my bread

And I was your honey

Up against a dark red wine

Tryin' to hold on

To the lovely

Through the bitter of our time

[Bridge]

Agate white wedding dress

Turquoise on your ring

Upright bass and violin

As you walked the aisle with me

[Chorus]

I was young

And I was hungry

Lord knows you were hungry too

We were both

Flat out starvin'

For something worthwhile to lose

[Chorus]

You were my bread

And I was your honey

Up against a dark red wine

Tryin' to hold on

To the lovely

Through the bitter of our time
