Oh Abilene, Inside of me Misunderstood and cruel Your casual slip Betrays my Point of view Oh and I can see For miles and miles But i can never Call your name Oh and Abilene Too many sunny skies And I'd leave this town I'd forget your skin I'd forget your name Hey and everything But you let me down Left me hanging around Like some strange Fruit from a tree And I'm afraid to sleep Afraid to walk these streets For the day they'll find me out There'll be no sympathy Yeah for ones like me Allowed So nevermore Your hurried breath Because you would never Compromise Oh and Abilene Too many sunny skies Oh and Abilene Too many sunny skies
