lyrics

They were both just farm kids when they met in the high school gym. Brightest thing he’d ever seen. “That one is the one for me.” But she had her own path in mind. Love was for a later time. She had dreams of city lights so she left him far behind. She saw great and distant lands. He ran the farm in Arkansas. He was never in her plans but she was always in his thoughts. Years passed. Harvests came and went. She overthrew the government. One day she doesn’t know just why she sent a postcard to say, “Hi.” Began to correspond a bit, rediscover old friendships. In a couple months she calls. He can barely speak at all. Grazing in the distance lambs raised their eyes and what they saw: he was never in her plans but she was always in his heart. He admired her checkered past. She sounds as she always has. “I’m not what you’d call a catch, but this love is the love that lasts.” They met in a luncheonette. He admired her suicide vest. Every word she spoke, he swooned. Said, “I want to join with you.” Her face was just so passionate. Her eyes were just so radiant. He said, “I’ve always loved you.” Then, “Let’s overthrow the government.” Our love will overthrow the government. We all have a history. Everyone’s a love story. Have to close your eyes to see. I am just a love story.
