Story Of You And Me – Sam Riggs

We’ve all got a story ’round here
I’ve got one to tell
I think about it every now and then
When I’m drinking by myself

And I pull that old box of records down
Solid gold
And watch those memories spin around
This is how it goes

Do you ever go down to paradise city?
‘Cause I still do
It still gets me high
Not a day goes by
That I don’t think twice
About letting you down
And letting you go
Your car wheels on a gravel road
Sounds so good and feels so bittersweet
The story of you and me

Oughtta box this heartbreak-up
Put it back on the shelf
So close to lettin’ go
But I can’t help myself
I gotta turn down the lights
And turn up the stereo
And lean my head against the wall
And there I go

And I’m back in your arms and Tuesday’s gone
Every “I love you” always on my mind
Not a day goes by
That I don’t think twice
About letting you down
And letting you go
Your car wheels on a gravel road
Sounds so good and feels so bittersweet
The story of you and me

And I ain’t seen you in forever
But that’s alright
I know wherever you are
You look wonderful tonight

Do you ever go down to paradise city?
‘Cause I still do
It still gets me high
Not a day goes by
That I don’t think twice
About letting you down
And letting you go
Your car wheels on a gravel road
Sounds so good and feels so bittersweet
Oh it sounds so good and feels so bittersweet
The story of you and me
