Alpha Omega Lyrics

On the morning you went away

the air was humid and the sky was gray



I had boiled peanuts for breakfast from cairo, georgia



the air was wet, my face was wetter

the pink flowers along the western window made me feel better

I turned the air conditioner on

found the note on scented stationary - you were long gone



I had boiled peanuts for breakfast from cairo, georgia



I popped the top off of the aluminum can

let the brine slide down my fingers, man

it was warm, it was warm on my skin

but i felt the cold blast looming on in



I had boiled peanuts for breakfast from cairo, georgia
