Abilene, inside of me
misunderstood and cruel
a casual slip betrays my point of view
I can see for miles and miles
but i can never call your name
Oh Abilene, too many sunny skies
I'd leave this town, i'd forget your skin
forget your name and everything
but you let me down, left me hanging around
like some strange fruit from a tree
I'm afraid to sleep, afraid to walk these streets
for the day they'll find me out
there would be no sympathy for ones like me around
So nevermore, your hurried breath
because you would never compromise
Oh Abilene too many sunny skies
