Dying Just a Little Songtext
von Jeffrey Foucault

Trying to stay alive
Trying to stay alive to it all
Dying just a little
Every time the leaves fall
The river freezes over
The warblers pass through
Dying just a little honey
Who takes care of you?


Trying to stay awake
Long enough to hear
Those late night songs
Dying just a little every time
You sing along
You hear all their confessions
You tell them what to do
Dying just a little honey
Who takes care of you?

Trying to stay a while
And just watch the deal go down
Dying just a little
Every time they try to kill
Your little town
Your babies move away
But they come back home to you
Dying just a little honey
Who takes care of you?


Trying to keep your heart open
Wide enough for everyone
Dying just a little every time
It comes undone
Or froze up like a mailbox
With the letters trapped inside
Kind-hearted woman
Just trying to stay alive
