Letras
I still hear your laugh on Fourth and Main
That old diner booth still knows your name
You left your mark like a tire track fade
Then disappeared like a summer parade
They say you're gone, but I don't agree
You're stitched in this town like a melody
The jukebox skips, then hits your song
And I still hum it when nights get long
Billtown blues, run through my chest
Like the pulse of a dream I never confessed
You were moonshine wild, Sunday sweet
Kissed like heat and danced offbeat
Billtown blues, carved in wood
Like initials in bark, still feelin' good
You left that night, but you never let go
You're the boy this town can't outgrow
You held the smoke like a second skin
Had a grin that dared the devil in
Said you'd stay, but I knew you too well
You were born with fire that don't sit still
I saw you once by the riverside
Cigarette lit, but your eyes looked wide
Like you knew this town would always pull
On a soul too sharp to be kept full
Billtown blues, run through my chest
Like the pulse of a dream I never confessed
You were moonshine wild, Sunday sweet
Kissed like heat and danced offbeat
Billtown blues, soft and mean
You haunt this town like a twilight scene
Left your boots, left your scent in the air
And I still feel you everywhere
You never wrote, but I still write songs
And whisper your name when the night feels long
You were gone in a flash, like a match in wind
But this town still aches like you're comin' again
Billtown blues, they linger slow
Like the hum of your truck down the old back road
You're a ghost in boots and a kiss in smoke
The kind of boy every heartstroke broke
Billtown blues, in the cracks and beams
Of this porch where I still chase dreams
You left, but you never did lose
You're the reason I still sing these Billtown blues
