Until Then 2 Lyrics

There's something in the way

She wears that clip

In her long black hair

She's a little older

It hangs across her shoulders

That makes the cowboys lust across their beers

They want to take her home with them tonight

She works behind the counter

Selling donuts and coffee

To the locals and the tourists

Who spill in from the cold

But she's thinking of her man

Two seasons across the ocean

War torn love left behind

And how she needs to

Embrace his warm heart again

Until then

She'll wrap leftovers in cellophane and lock them away behind cold doors

Until then she'll wipe the snow from her bedroom window sill and watch as it floats gently to the ground

Until then

She'll smile at the newcomers and remember that the floor needs to be swept before she goes home tonight

Until then

She'll spend her minimum wage a thousand ways in her mind and remember the bills that she's behind

Until then

She'll fill her empty glass with coffee and let the warmth flow through her lonely heart

Until then

She'll polish her shoes just the way her dad showed her in a hope that she'd see his love reflect in them

Until then

Until then

Until then

She's thinking of her man

Two seasons across the ocean

War torn love left behind

And how she needs

To embrace his warm heart again

There's something in the way

She wears that clip

In her long black hair
