I woke up in a hotel and I didn't know what to do. I turned the TV on and wrote a letter to you. The news was talkin' 'bout a dragnet up on the interstate.
The first time I laid eyes on you. I checked myself right out of this world. One thing will bring me back from this heart attack. And that's your sweet lovin', girl.
You were dreaming on a park bench. About a broad highway somewhere. When the music from the carillon. Seemed to hurl your heart out there. Past the scientific darkness.
Well I don't know how I found her. Love works in mysterious ways. Well I could hardly afford a cup of coffee back then. Weren't exactly my salad days.
You were a tiny spark caught in your parents eyes and when they made love in the dark well you were A big surprise and the old man came through gave his very best for you and your mothers arms t.
When I look into your eyes. See the world cut down to size. Baby don't apologize. Takin' me one step over the line. . When I touch your secret skin. Babe I know it ain't no sin.
How've you been? Alright?. You got the power. Turn on the light. Don't run for cover. No need to hide. You should be here. Right by my side. . 'Cause you know I've got your number.
I'm a real man, I got a real guitar. I'm a real man, don't even know where the boys are. Don't want to frighten you little girl, you're so sweet and nice.
When the road gets dark. And you can no longer see. Just let my love throw a spark, baby. And have a little faith in me. . And when the tears you cry.
Six foot six stood on the ground, weighted 235 pounds. But I saw that giant of a man brought down to his knees by love. He was the kind of man who would gamble on love.

Bring back, bring back. Bring back your love to me. I need your kisses. Oh, how I'm missing. The things that used to be. . I love you, I want you. I need you constantly.
What is that fallin' out of your eyes. What is that rollin' on down your shirt. Thunder and lightening from a bloodshot sky. This time its lookin' like a permanent hurt.
Well now I never went to college babe. I did not have the luck. I rolled out of Indiana in the back of a. Pickup truck. With no education higher. Than the streets of my hometown.
I'm a real man, got some real guitar I'm a real man. I don't even know where the boys are. I don't mean to frighten you little girl 'cause you're so sweet and nice.
I'm alright tonight. (I'm alright). You're alright tonight. (I'm alright). We're alright tonight. (It's alright tonight). . You came down a twisted up road.
Some folks live by a big blue ocean. Some folks live in the center of town. Some folks live without any notion. Me, I'm just tryin' to live your love down.
I woke up in a hotel, didn't know what to do. I turned the TV on, wrote a letter to you. The news was talkin' 'bout a dead man upon the interstate. Seems they were lookin' for a Cadillac with Tennessee plates.
(John Hiatt). . I didn't say we wouldn't hurt anyone. That's how you learn, you just get burned. But, we don't have to feel like dirt anymore. Though love's not earned baby, it's our turn.
These are the words. That cry out of me in the night. Like a buffalo herd. From a shotgun blast scattered in flight. . I got a one track mind. Going down a one train line.
