A song about my beloved hometown, and/or my dad - Hilary Tipps

lyrics

3 am come stumbling into The Old South Pancake House
Elvira clicks her pen and cocks her hip
Through the smoking section haze she tells me Jesus saves
I’m so glad ‘cause I can’t save myself

The gravity here is not like gravity there
The small things falls harder than you know.
Once my zip code changed and I gave away my name
There was no one to walk me home.

Fort Worth I forgive you. You took more than I gave you.
Fort Worth I forgive you. Do you forgive me too?

At the Sev down on Westcreek trying to buy my smokes.
The guy behind the counter asks about my dad.
This place is like a summer storm: hot then cold then clingy,
And it won’t let me walk away.

Shivering and smoking in the hospital garage
My brother just says, “Hil, I need you home.”
Now I’m here to stay but you have gone away
Why couldn’t you just wait?
I didn’t get a say.
Thank God I got to walk you home.

Fort Worth I forgive you. You took more than I gave you.
Fort Worth I forgive you.

This crowded porch on Hemphill is where I belong,
Laughing at your jokes and singing Eagles songs.

Fort Worth I forgive you. You took more than I gave you.
Fort Worth I forgive you. Do you forgive me too?
