Peoria Lunch Box Blues - Songs: Ohia

Gwendolyn, I wonder what you’d’ve called them

I think a name you might choose is Nobody’s Blues

You see when you were just a kid

They think you won’t remember what they did

They said how you were just a kid

You wouldn’t remember, but you did

Then you learned how to say

«Everything you love tries to get away»

Then you learned how to say

«Everything you love finally does»

It’s finally looking good up there our skyline

See how if fits right in there with heaven

The constellations and Comiskey’s lights

Two old friends in the night

Who always knew they would if they could

Meet one last time in the old neighborhood

Hey, wait a minute, things ain’t looking that good

It’s getting quiet and the light’s getting dim

And this ain’t like no place I’ve ever been

What kind of trouble am I in?

Oh Gwen, here they come again

It’s nobody’s Blues

Here they come again
