Cass & Henry

I saw a reflection of a shadow of a woman
I once loved
There stood my faith, my own reflection, bitterness more often than love
So I bought a gun, took a pill, hung a rope to reach my love
But I had no bullets, just and aspirin, bitterness more often than love
I went down to cass, to meet up with my girl
I was 2 hours late
And 23 months too early believing my girl would leave me so high
So high I couldnt reach, well
Where my baby lay up in the sky a ??? took upon me as the day went on, she was with another man, stood about 6 foot 3 240 pounds, a giant compared to me it was my mouth and his might, it was gonna be a long long day going on.
By this time it was 12:30
And I was passed out on the ground
Saw a hand to reach down and help me up
She was the prettiest little thing and came to take me home
When she asked how old
I was I told her 22
She told me she was 19 and the day was young
So she took me home to her parents house
I had no idea why
I was going to her parents house but
I was a man, making a woman make me a man, making a woman.
I saw a reflection of a shadow of a woman
I once loved
There stood my faith, my own reflection, bitterness more often than love
So I bought a gun, took a pill, hung a rope to reach my love
But I had no bullets, just and aspirin, bitterness more often than love
Its been about a year and
I saw her the other day **the next few lines overlap**
Hangin' out down cass and henry hanging like my heart was on a sleeve, on my sleeve my one armed cutie my diamond in the rough
The girl who broke my heart my 19 year old dream made me wear my heart on my sleeve the sleeve
I wipe my tears with she had my heart, my little diamond, my sapphire in the rough..it was gone, so gone.
I'm never, never gonna meet another girl
Never ever, never ever
And she was gone
