Sunset Over Pointe Inn

Oklahoma Lyrics

(verse 1)

In Oklahoma, your spirit broke down
And I waited for you in a beat up motel
I saw your payments just last week and I
Wrote you off like the check for my plane ride

And I wanna see you, but I don't know how to say it
It's been a while since March and I hate it
But you're doing better by the looks of your smile
Is that what it's like not having me around?

(chorus 1)

Above Springhill and Marriott
Flying high in a plane like a space ship
I almost wish that I never even came home.

(verse 2)

That place we went sat on top of a mountain
You wore a uniform of nylon and cotton
I bought a dress that was white and blue
Now it's hanging in the closet in my bedroom.

Chess and lawn darts, you shot bottle rockets
Off the dock of your grandparents cottage
And I swore I loved you but it never felt right
Cause what I saw in you was a figment of my mind

(chorus 2)

I'll leave you back in September
With your birthday you shared with my mother
I almost wish that you never even came home.

(outro)

And I dropped $300, just so that you might notice me
And chemically blonde, I still only got your voice machine
It was never like you to lie, but you haven't been yourself lately
But if it hadn't happened, then I wouldn't have been able to leave
So I'm glad Oklahoma took you and set me free
