|
Cowgirl gaze and a sailor's mouth |
|
Legs for days and a home down south |
|
You had the answers no matter they were wrong |
|
You had that come hither, go away, but don't be gone too long |
|
Gypsy ways and the sideway smile |
|
You bet on forever but got dealt just a while |
|
Slept with your boots on, how I miss that sound |
|
Not even yours now, how the hell could you be mine? |
|
But maybe you can remember |
|
Baby, you can dream |
|
Lately things have been better |
|
It only hurts when I breathe |
|
And if I close my eyes I see whatever I want to see |
|
Don't know who to talk to |
|
Don't know what hand to hold |
|
Don't know who to hang up on |
|
Or how to keep the fool from fool's good |
|
There's a key that we lost, through the door in the floor |
|
There's a line that's been crossed, that says no, hell no, no more |
|
Cold blue stares and all this back and forth |
|
It's raining in the east and it's frozen up north |
|
The sun sinks west past the dark side of the moon |
|
The streets are all iced over and our love lays in ruin |
|
But maybe it hurts to remember |
|
Baby, it hurts not to dream |
|
It hurts when you turn out the lights at night and see what I want you to see |
|
If you close your eyes forever |
|
Can't you see what you want to see? |
|
Maybe you get the feeling |
|
That things aren't quite as they seem |
|
It hurts when you close your eyes at night |
|
It hurts when you sleep and dream |
|
Lately it's always December |
|
And things are as bad as they seem |
|
It hurts all the time |
|
Cause it's only you, only you that I dream |
