One Mississippi

One Mississippi, two Mississippi
 Counting down the seconds
 Standing in the wreckage of love
 On a cold grey Jackson dawn
 Oh I just can't watch this, sure can't stop this
 I keep waiting, your tail lights are fading
 I see you're already gone
 I'm half of who I used to be, one Mississippi

 Lipstick on the coffee cup
 I know I should wash it up
 But maybe I'll just wait here for a little while
 I run my fingers 'round the top
 Where your lips were I just stop
 'Cause I, I can almost see your smile
 And it's one Mississippi, two Mississippi
 Counting down the seconds
 Standing in the wreckage of love
 On a cold grey Jackson dawn
 And I know everybody's got their demons
 Everybody's got their reasons
 Why they leave when they run
 But baby, I could have helped you through it
 You built a wall and I couldn't get to it
 And now I'm waiting for the rain
 And the pain to come, yeah
 And it's one Mississippi, two Mississippi
 Counting down the seconds
 Standing in the wreckage of love
 On a cold grey Jackson dawn
 Oh I just can't watch this, sure can't stop this
 I keep waiting, your tail lights are fading
 I see you're already gone
 I'm half of who I used to be, one Mississippi

 Ooh one Mississippi, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
