Lyrics

Cruel Reminder

[Verse 1]

You're pleading goodbye

To all you'd never see again

Cruel reminder how things were

[Verse 2]

Spend your days going

Down the canyons of Big Bend

Where the high will meet below

[Guitar Interlude]

[Pre-Chorus]

Feel the change in overcome

Feed the change that never come

Feel the change in everyone

Feed the change in every girl

[Chorus]

Asleep in the line

You're closing down, you're closing up

Still ashamed of where you come from

Dim the clear

Souvenir

You cling to a

Steers you homeward

[Refrain]

Cruel reminder how things were

Cruel reminder how things were

Cruel reminder how things were

Cruel reminder how things were
