Your face still haunts my sleep

My East Kentucky Dream

How can something be

So warm and pretty

And so cold and mean

There's days when she shines so bright

The most beautiful thing

That I’ve seen in this life

But there's days when it hurts just to breathe

'Cause she stomped on my heart and left me to bleed

Am I killing myself

For my East Kentucky Dream

My East Kentucky Dream

Chase her they say or you’ll live with regret

But I never know which kind of day will come next

And things arеn't what they seem

The day can start bitter and finish so sweet

But that knifе it cuts both ways

A morning so pretty and a night full of rage

But I'll keep on rolling that dice

'Cause those gut-wrenching lows

Can't touch the highs

And your face still haunts my sleep

My East Kentucky Dream

How can something be

So warm and pretty

And so cold and mean

The closer I get

The further it seems

My East Kentucky Dream

My East Kentucky Dream

My East Kentucky Dream
