I'm glad you picked up the phone. Yeah, I know that we both agreed. We'd leave each other alone. We're just wastin' our time. We know it ain't right. There's no goin' back but havin' said that.
Im on a haystack kickin back three bails high. A flatbed stage and a full moon light. Party on the farm all night long. With the moonshine flowin' till the break of dawn.
Today an old heartache came calling. An old flame I thought died out like some falling star. Instead it's rekindling some memories. That may start an out of control raging fire.
She locks him out but leaves the key. Where he knows it'll always be. In their secret place. He comes and goes and she never knows. Just where she stands in this crazy game he plays.
Well, she said when she left that a change might do me good. So I took her advice and I did the best I could. I've gone from this to that 'til I'm nothing like I used to be.
My lover comes to me with a rose on her bosom. The moon's dancin' purple all through her black hair. And a ladies-in-waiting, she stands 'neath my window.
Don't go sayin' I'm leaving you. Thinkin' I never got close enough to stay. Time runs in and then runs out. Starts again and it's always been that way.
Well, I ride an old Paint and I lead an old Dan. I'm a-headed to Montan' for to throw the houlihan. Where they water in the coulees and they feed in the draw.
Out on the rollin' sea Jesus speaks to me. Out on the rollin' sea when she rolls. Out on the rollin' sea Jesus speaks to me. Out on the rollin' sea when she rolls.
Out in the darkness, out in the night. I see you standing there. I want to guide you into the light. Show you I really care. . It's hard to show the way I feel.
You're leadin' me down a one way, a one way. You're leadin' me down a one way street. Is it a game that you play, that you play. Here I've been thinkin' that you're so sweet.
In a room just like so many. Knives and forks and glasses clatter. He sat behind a microphone. In a corner where it didn't matter. For honest pay an honest player.
One rain drop fallin' down on. Some hilltop all alone it. Finds another and together. They roll on down. . One mornin' then another. Discovering one another.
You close the door in front of me, I wait patiently outside. But as the minutes tick away I feel the anger rise. Who's the object of this rage, who's not being fair.
She's driving outside providence. She's on the outside looking in. She's finally figured out just where she's going. . Her mama says that she's insane.
Here we are 'neath the stars. It's just me and you. What are we gonna do?. Where's this gonna lead?. . You say it's time to define. How we feel about it.
Here we are 'neath the stars. It's just me and you. What are we gonna do. Where's this gonna lead. You say it's time. To define how we feel about it. I know without a doubt.
Time, it goes so fast. Like a river running past. And you're lucky if you find at last. Just one faithful heart. . So I watch her as she sleeps. All curled up in her dreams.
Hearts have been broken, angry words spoken. There's a wall of pain, tears can't wash away. The first morning's the darkest, first day the hardest. After someone makes the choice to break the faith.
