Iowa

My life's a door and she walked right through it
A stranger in an even stranger place
I shot a glance as she walked by me
That my mind could not erase

Anything she longs for could be here
But it was her choice to disappear
And I'm the only thing she left behind

I keep on going, never knowing, if the gates have all been shut
I keep on staying, stuck inside my loneliness, while she's in Iowa

A cup of coffee, a book to write in
She did with long strokes of her pen
Shiny auburn hair on the softest ever skin and
A face I wanna see again

Anything she longs for could be here
But it was her choice to disappear
And I'm the only thing she left behind

I keep on going, never knowing, if the gates have all been shut
I keep on staying, stuck inside my loneliness, while she's in Iowa

My mind undresses, while she caresses
I close my eyes so I can feel
For once in my life I've felt this connected
And it just might have been for real

Anything she longs for could be here
But it was her choice to disappear
And I'm the only thing she left behind

I keep on going, never knowing, if the gates have all been shut
I keep on staying, stuck inside my loneliness, while she's in Iowa
