I had a plan to make me look tough
You’d call and I wouldn’t pick up
But I saw your name and I jumped out of bed
I was yours from the moment we met
We’d both been keeping our space
But someone broke into your place
I came to the bank while you changed your accounts
It was enough just to help calm you down
CHORUS:
My friends say, “Stay away”
They know I obsess
No one’s really been at their best
But this is different, I just love you more than anyone I ever have,
I guess
I’ve prayed for something to give
How can this heartache still live?
I’m not trying to whine, I’m just fucking spent
I don’t think you’ll ever know how deep that I went
I say that, but maybe you do
Your eyes are a lonelier blue
You don’t talk about it or cry out my name
But maybe you feel the same
CHORUS
I’m no victim, you’re one of a kind
There’s more to our hearts than lost time
I don’t have to have you to know what this is
But I’ll never forget our first kiss
I wanted to leave here with you
But you do what you gotta do
And if it’s not in Newport, I’ll be right here
Love doesn’t disappear

The best I've heard from Steve Earle in a while. The songs have a subtler, earthier tone, tastefully rendered in authentic sounding country/blues/bluegrass stylings. 'J.T' reminds of earlier records like 'Feel Alright' or 'Train a Comin'.
Deep grief, love and compassion is felt on the final track, the only composition from Steve, seemingly written for his son. The rest, composed by JT, do confirm what a great songwriter he really was. tideracer
