It’s an Eric Church kind of morning
southern twang hitting just right
song all scratchy, like ghosts
haunting good memories, all gone

Some days are blueberry wine
and some days are PBR
all the hops washed out
that cool crisp taste has faded

We went from daydreams
to ghosts in the memory
the pictures are fading fast
there’s a thornbush blooming

Here’s to the haunting
song all scratchy, like ghosts
to the thornbush eating up the rose
it’s an Eric Church kind of morning
