Can't you see I'm holding your flag  The one that you left on the ground  Well is the world too heavy for you  If it makes you feel better, I'll carry it, too  No one's gonna stand in your light  Impressions are easy to fight  But until you turn to me and say  You don't need anyone to carry the weight, I will stay o    [CHORUS:]  Abilene  Bring it on home to me  Abilene    Isn't it good to be free o  Can't you see I'm wearing your shirt  The one with the heart on the sleeve  Everyone can see you've been hurt  But honey don't give up on me  When you gonna make up your mind  When you gonna get out of bed  Well everyday you're gonna find  Broken promises are no worse than words never said    [CHORUS]    Then you want someone to come along and save the day  Well you make it much too hard    [CHORUS]
