Marfa on My Mind - Chris Shiflett

Two days, two nights in a hotel room

Lone Star beer, nothin' better to do

Took off her ring and put it in her purse

Didn’t need anything to make her feel any worse

She asked me to help her with her dress

Her hair hung down over her chest

Pulled back the covers and climbed into bed

I knew she’d be a lover that I’d never forget

Headin' west on the ten tonight

I gotta get back to my real life

Hard as I try, I can’t leave her behind

I got Marfa on my mind

Empty bottles and cigarette ash

Woke up, she was gone and I just laughed

She left her necklace layin' next to the bed

Where she is now, I can only guess

Headin' west on the ten tonight

I gotta get back to my real life

Hard as I try, I can’t leave her behind

I got Marfa on my mind

And I swear I sometimes see her

Right there in my rearview mirror

Headin' west on the ten tonight

I gotta get back to my real life

Hard as I try, I can’t leave her behind

I got Marfa on my

I got Marfa on my mind

Marfa on my mind

I got Marfa on my mind

Marfa on my mind
