At my door the leaves are fallin'. A cold wild wind will come. Sweet hearts walked by together. And I still miss someone. . I go out on a party. To look for a little fun.
Oh, your golden lights of America. Joseph sought your prairies and your buffalo. And the humming of the rails down through Kansas. They brought Joseph in from Baltimore.
I love this town like an unmade bed. I love this town of the living dead. I love this town gonna paint it red. If I can spare a minute. . I love this town where the curtains twitch.
I knew love when it still meant forever. When a feeling shared didn't always have to hurt. And a promise that was made would go unbroken. I knew love when it was more than just a word.
Breakin' rocks in the hot sun. I fought the law and the law won. I fought the law and the law won. . I needed money and I had none. I fought the law and the law won.
I don't wanna talk about love. 'Cause I've heard it before. And it talks too loud. You can hear it in a disco midnight. Shouting. I don't wanna think about it.
I don't wanna talk about love. 'Cause I've heard it before it talks too loud. You can hear it in a disco midnight, shouting. . And I don't wanna think about it, think about it.
chapter one,. & the warm stars are shining. & light the sky with their long dying. Some strange April,. when all the stars stall and stay still. & the days fly by.
shoot me, darling. i am a gun. you need a lover. and i am not one. i am not one. . you think that. flowers are pretty. but they're just hungry for sun.
It's a cheating situation, a stealing invitation. To take what's not really ours, to make it through the midnight hours. It's a cheating situation, just a cheap imitation.
I drove through the park and I searched all the bars. Where I made out with love too many times. . It was always so easy to find and unhappy woman. Till I started looking for mine.
She'd like to give me things that you've stopped giving. She sees in me the things you used to see. And she'd like to feel these arms that you've left defeat.
I'm not here just drinking someone's mem'ry away. But I wish I had someone I could leave so I could stay. I'm not the kind who runs around and cheats on his wife.
You'd known so long that you were wrong. But still you had your way. You told her lies and alibies. And hurt her more each day. . But now your conscience bothers you.
Today the midnight oils all over someone. And those forbidden places arent forbidden anymore. If my back door could talk it would tell me. That my borrowed Angels been this far before.
I woke up this morning feeling like I never felt before. My head aches my eyes are red and I hurt places I ain't hurt before. Though I don't remember I really don't believe I had a fight.
Everybody says you let me down I should be ashamed to take you round. Makes no difference what you used to do darling I could never be ashamed of you.
You can fill your local honky tonk. With every guy in town. Tell the bartender to set 'em up. Free drinks all around. Pump the jukebox full of quarters.
I knew this would happen. Sooner or later I'd run to you. I'm finding I'm happy. But I can say I've missed you too. . Don't ask me to dance. I don't think I'm quite where you are just yet.
There's a warm breeze blowin' on the back porch babe. Listen close you'll hear the rain. The whisper in your voice is making me weak. Your love speaks my name.
