Dead Pawn Lyrics
I thought I might have seen
your gold wedding ring
at a pawn shop out on 66.
The man behind the counter described
the girl that brought it in,
right then I knew that you weren’t coming back.
I went out to the parking lot,
I lit a cigarette,
and I thought about the rings in that glass case.
The things we leave behind,
in silver and in gold,
are not the things we wish we could replace.
Sitting right here on my own
I can’t help but feel like that dead pawn,
just one more thing that
you have left behind.
I pulled out of the parking lot,
And left the ring behind.
Drove past the diner where I first met you.
Where you served me coffee,
and then we shared a cigarette.
Those are the things I’ll always hold on to.
There’s no glass case for the love I gave you.
I don’t know where it goes to when it’s gone.
And I know that I won’t find the answer
looking through a glass case of dead pawn,
looking through a glass case of dead pawn.
your gold wedding ring
at a pawn shop out on 66.
The man behind the counter described
the girl that brought it in,
right then I knew that you weren’t coming back.
I lit a cigarette,
and I thought about the rings in that glass case.
The things we leave behind,
in silver and in gold,
are not the things we wish we could replace.
I can’t help but feel like that dead pawn,
just one more thing that
you have left behind.
And left the ring behind.
Drove past the diner where I first met you.
Where you served me coffee,
and then we shared a cigarette.
Those are the things I’ll always hold on to.
I don’t know where it goes to when it’s gone.
And I know that I won’t find the answer
looking through a glass case of dead pawn,
looking through a glass case of dead pawn.
