Drive away, just get on the interstate. And slip through this closing gate. Pulled into this cheap hotel. I called just to wish you well. . You said, "Don't let love break you down".
I never expected. You to love me. The way I loved you. To have you near. . Was all I wanted. Just to have you near. It's funny how you can forget. There's a world outside yourself.
We pried open my window. Let the summer rush in. And we laughed with the new air. . Now I lay and watch the green leaves. Dance and whisper sweet breath.
When I was a child a story was told. About the devil and a girl, oh, so bold. He offered her riches, a fortune of gold. And lovers abound, but she lifted her soul.
