Asking Me Back Lyrics

I took my boots off, the way she told me to

I talked to people, I said I'll be home late

She said, who's your boss, is it them or is it you

Come rest yourself, and let the rest of it wait

I had a drink, maybe two more than I should

She set the table, I just pulled on up

I said, I can't think, but then I never could,

I'm by myself, and by the way that's enough

By the flood from the rain and the fire through the timbers

She's asking me back

She knew my name 'cause she said she remembers

And she's asking me back

And she's asking me back

So I'm going

And if it's nothing, it's been good knowing

You all

In this hole in the hole in the wall

I swept the steps down, the dust and dirt roll in

I made it legal, I said I'll wash my plate

She said, what's the point, when it just gets used again

Come rest yourself, and let the rest of it wait

So I'm staying, and that's enough

If it's nothing, that's enough
