Until Then 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 cross the ocean

War torn love left behind

And how she needs

To feel his warm embrace again

Until then

She'll wrap the left overs carefully

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 new comers

And remember

The floor needs to be swept again

Before she goes home tonight

Until then

She'll spend her minimum wage a thousand ways in her mind

Then remember the bills

That she's behind

Till then

Until then

Until then

'Till then

She'll fill her 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'll see

His love reflect in them

Until then

Until then

She's thinking of her man

Two seasons 'cross the ocean

War torn love left behind

And how she needs to feel his warm embrace again

Until then

Until then

There's something in the way she wears the clip in her long black hair
