ann-marita - state line lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
she had always known that all she owned worth keeping
could be packed in a couple of bags as they were leaving
by the time they were out of arm’s reach, the baby was sleeping
and the sun wouldn’t rise until they crossed the state line

[verse 2]
still, she made sure to keep her sungl-sses on while driving
in case the highway patrol were out in full force this morning
’cause if anyone saw the black eye those gl-sses were hiding
they would take all the power she’d spent so d-mn long to find

[chorus]
and she quietly sang every song she knew
so her baby would not have to wake up to
the sound of mama crying one more time
and she whispered a thank you right from her heart
if it wasn’t for her, she would’ve fallen apart
and stayed on the receiving end for as long as she could stay alive

[verse 3]
from now the woman she had been would stop existing
a p.o. box and a new name and somehow make a living
by the time people she barely knew might report them missing
they would be too far gone to ever be found again

[chorus]
and she quietly sang every song she knew
so her baby would not have to wake up to
the sound of mama crying one more time
and she whispered a thank you right from her heart
if it wasn’t for her, she would’ve fallen apart
and stayed on the receiving end for as long as she could stay alive

[outro]
she had to believe that it was a sign
the beautiful sunrise as they crossed the state line
ooh, ooh
