lyrics
I was once in tune with the sentimental blues that kept you lonely
But I have heard that one before, hundred times or maybe more, and so it goes
And I've been trying awful hard to simply let you down tonight
Still this attitude won't get me nowhere
But to the bottom of a bottle and there's
There's something in the way
Of the madness you portray that so alluring
Your body crashes on the scene like some broken down Machine, so cold and frail
But still I'm trying awful hard to simply let you down tonight
Still this attitude won't get me nowhere
But to the bottom of a notion I can't hide
Cause its something so contagious
Each time you bat your eyes
And though this feeling is dangerous
The pull is too strong to deny
Cause I've been here awhile and I know what its like to be alone
And there's a fear in the lies that fall together in time
To show that I'm not listening no more
I have read your face and my baby I can't trace what makes me want you
With a shot so straight and sure, and a mind so insecure, I need to know
But still I'm trying awful hard to simply let you down tonight
And still this attitude won't get me nowhere
But to the bottom of a bottle in this dive
Cause it's something so contageous
Each time you bat your eyes
And though this feeling is dangerous
The pull is too strong to deny
Cause I've been here awhile and I know what its like to be alone
And there's a fear in the lies that fall together in time
To show that I'm not listening no more
Now every one is tunin' out the radio, but we don't mind
We got the birds singing summer's song in the sweet sunshine.
And there ain't no clouds in sight so best to take it slow, this I'm sure
That this feelin' will be ours as long as we got the light
But I have heard that one before, hundred times or maybe more, and so it goes
And I've been trying awful hard to simply let you down tonight
Still this attitude won't get me nowhere
But to the bottom of a bottle and there's
There's something in the way
Of the madness you portray that so alluring
Your body crashes on the scene like some broken down Machine, so cold and frail
But still I'm trying awful hard to simply let you down tonight
Still this attitude won't get me nowhere
But to the bottom of a notion I can't hide
Cause its something so contagious
Each time you bat your eyes
And though this feeling is dangerous
The pull is too strong to deny
Cause I've been here awhile and I know what its like to be alone
And there's a fear in the lies that fall together in time
To show that I'm not listening no more
I have read your face and my baby I can't trace what makes me want you
With a shot so straight and sure, and a mind so insecure, I need to know
But still I'm trying awful hard to simply let you down tonight
And still this attitude won't get me nowhere
But to the bottom of a bottle in this dive
Cause it's something so contageous
Each time you bat your eyes
And though this feeling is dangerous
The pull is too strong to deny
Cause I've been here awhile and I know what its like to be alone
And there's a fear in the lies that fall together in time
To show that I'm not listening no more
Now every one is tunin' out the radio, but we don't mind
We got the birds singing summer's song in the sweet sunshine.
And there ain't no clouds in sight so best to take it slow, this I'm sure
That this feelin' will be ours as long as we got the light
