"Codeine Dream" lyrics - COLTER WALL

COLTER WALL
"Codeine Dream"

Prayin' on the North wind
Lead me to my door
Thumbing through my greenbacks
Swearing I made more
Some cruel nightly cycle
Leaves me cryin' on a motel floor
But I don't cry for you anymore

For many a dark hour
I look up to the sky
And many unkind thoughts are laid
On my hazy eyes
Sometimes I get to thinkin'
Why wait around to die
But I don't think of you
So I get by

And every day it seems
My whole damn life's just a codeine dream
But I don't dream of you anymore

The sun has gone away now
The green grass turns to brown
Every December it's a little bit harder
To lay that bottle down
It's more than just the weather
That plagues this prairie town
But I won't be seeing you
When I come 'round

And every day it seems
My whole damn life's just a codeine dream
But I don't dream of you anymore
