Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I placed the flowers in her hair
And now I place them by her side
[Verse 2]
I curse the hours, curse the time
The way the day fades into night
[Verse 3]
I find redemption in the morning
But that split second splits me open
When my hand falls where you used to rest your head
I placed the flowers in her hair
When I was hers, and she was mine
[Chorus]
And the bitter root lies rootless
Count the headlights dusk to dawn
And the meadowlark is calling
And the road keeps going on
[Verse 4]
I still put on your favorite records
As if you're in the other room
[Verse 5]
I still fill up two whiskey glasses
One for me, one for you
[Verse 6]
I find sweet salvation in the memories
Till I remember that you left me
With nothing but your voicemail to talk to
I still put on your favorite record
Close my eyes and dance with you
[Chorus]
And the bitter root lies rootless
Like a sound without a song
And the meadowlark is calling
And the road keeps going on and on
[Chorus]
Now the bitter root lies rootless
I don't know what lies beyond
Counting headlights, count excuses
Count the ways it all went wrong
And the radio is ruthless
I hear your name in every song
And the meadowlark is calling
And the road keeps going on
And on
[Outro]
I placed the flowers in her hair
And now I place 'em by her side
