Lone Star Loners
Words and Music copyright Cynthia Marchant 2020

On my way to Austin I came up through San Antone
Stopped in all the bars I thought you might call home
I looked in all the dark corner booths
thinking you'd be in a mood
sitting with a lone star
the loner that you are

you'd be peeling labels naked bottles tiny strips
lined up like solders writing napkin lyrics
deep in thought that's how I envision
I'll find you I am driven
world turning as thoughts spin
dream catcher in the wind

we're just two loners maybe that's our fate
Lone star loners in a lonely state

I like to imagine you and I will meet again
a sweet fairy tale I sometimes entertain
I can take back things I've done and said
I can get out of this head
get back into your heart
we can share a star chart

we're just two loners maybe that's our fate
Lone star loners in a lonely state

about

Cynthia Marchant Chicago, Illinois

Cynthia's music rises from southern roots and life's many ups and downs, with inspiration from childhood memories; love lost, found and imagined; dreams and journeys of body and spirit. Her smoky, hypnotic voice embraces a depth of emotion, and the evocative, gritty songs weave stories that are haunting and deeply reflective.
