Girl From Carbondale
Daniel Knox
[Chorus]
This is a song about a girl from Carbondale
Who had a brother and sister
And in 1970 her brother died
But she kept getting older
And at times she felt alone in a crowd
Oh
[Verse 1]
This is the part about the house I never saw
Outside of pictures and memories
And a Christmas on TV
Glass of wine, half-full
All day, all night
It was something that could start a fight
Or forget about the whole thing
And tell a story over by the sink
[Verse 2]
I know a song about a girl who liked to dance
She told me over and over
To be careful out at night
Or far away
Don’t go
Don’t go
Don’t stay
It all comes back then gets away
From thе kindness of a patient heart
Or thе moment that you fall apart
[Chorus]
This is a song about a girl from Carbondale
