Lyrics:
I'm not in the headspace for a love affair
You can hold me, but don't touch me there
I'd run my fingers through your hair
But I'm leaving tomorrow
My aorta's getting overstretched
I leave my heart and pack up all the rest
This gaping hole up in my chest
Just might close up forever
What can I even offer you but astral projection and a letter or two?
I almost start to feel like I'm a deadbeat dad
To the children that we never had
Like I'm always doing something bad
If I don't stay here and love you
If I could I'd pack your town upon my back
I wouldn't have to keep on holding back
Keep your calculated plans intact
You're too heavy to carry
If I'd never left and if she hadn't stayed
They might have never made those plans they laid
Been dealt the hand that leaves one card unplayed
And they're living together
You could blame it on my gypsy blood
But that's a little bit too Hollywood
I swear I'd settle if I could
But I don't know where my home is
The roamers want to settle down, the settled want to roam around.
In your eyes I see a soul I want to touch
And my dreams about you make me blush
Every contact gives me such a rush
Does that mean I'm perverted?
Maybe if I try I can grow out of sex
Let love and loneliness lay down to rest
As it stands my chances aren't the best
To stay Happy Forever
Awesome Artist Milly🪽🎶🎨

Eratically deleted my other comment however yes I think you hit the nail on the head with that. Purging ceremonially.
please. please please please, milly look inside that guitar and tell me what is written on the label, lol. please?
what is the brand and model of that classic(al) guitfiddle??
It is a small classical guitar made into a requinto guitar, tuned up a 4th
It is signed by Willie Nelson
It belongs to Misa Arriaga who filmed the video and set up the audio equipment
it is super cool, who ever fixed it up is super cool, you are super cool n misa is super cool! and willie nelson, well goes without saying... that guitar, that setting, that song were perfect for one another. thanks for the info@@milouzeb
