Marlboro Reds

VerseI still remember you on a worn-down tailgate Lit up by that Comal County moonlight Not a sound around, or a soul in sight We were the crickets for the night ChorusYou told me all your secrets I told you all my sins Just prayin' you would take me as I am You told me that you'd never settle Then you settled in the back of my head When I think of you I think of Marlboro Reds VerseYou ever strive for something That you know you can't have? But you thank God you had it when you did When I was around you I felt I could be the man That I spent so much time tryin' to keep hid ChorusYou told me all your secrets I told you all my sins Just prayin' you would take me as I am You told me that you'd never settle Then you settled in the back of my head When I think of you I think of Marlboro Reds BridgeAnd I could try and say that I ain't been painting this town Maybe lie, try and say that I finally put 'em down But you know as good as I do I never quite quit thinkin' of you ChorusYou told me all your secrets I told you all my sins Just prayin' you would take me as I am You told me that you'd never settle But you settled in the back of my head When I think of you I think of Marlboro Reds Damn the Marlboro Reds OutroFading out like a cigarette light We were the crickets for the night
