"Thirteen Years" lyrics - ALEJANDRO ESCOVEDO

Thirteen years I've followed you
What do I have that isn't blue
A thousand promises fall on me
You know the end of it I can't see

From San Francisco to New York
All I seem to do is work
My feet hurt and it's not from dancing
Close to you

Thirteen years such a long, long time
Thirteen years is it a waste of time
Thirteen years, Thirteen years

Like a spider now I'm caught
All these promises tied in knots
You know I just can't ever let you
Get away

Trail of tears I cried for you
Hoping you'd find your way back to
The only the one who always wants you
Back again

Thirteen years such a long, long time
Thirteen years is it a waste of time
Thirteen years, Thirteen years

Radio I bought for you
Broke while it played our favorite song
And I wonder is Thirteen years
Too long

Thirteen years such a long, long time
Thirteen years is it a waste of time
Thirteen years, Thirteen years

Thirteen years such a long, long time
Thirteen years is it a waste of time
Thirteen years, Thirteen years
