Rolled in last night
To the dawn, the porch,
And both our floodlights
No excuse
But we were having such a good time
Why, oh why
Can't I just walk the straight and narrow
So ashamed

Another beautiful morning under stars and bars
And F series pickups and rusted out cars
And they're eating breakfast at the strip bar
Just to have a peek...
And the beer soaked angels spread their wings
And dream of twenties and diamonds and things
And somehow that might ease the sting
Of the company they keep

Showed up in a sleeve of tattoos
High definition broadcast of attitude
It's like she wants me to know she's got nothing left to lose
Me too
Little bag of junk gets her high
Keeps her from thinking bout the shadows in her mind
She likes me
She knows I won't ask her why she cries

There used to be laughter and wide-eyes
Yellow balloons taking to the skies
Life on the high wire can only come down
And I landed in a ghost town

Shut the gates and lost the keys
There were just too many memories
And those footprints in the sand

Welcome back to earth my fine young lucky southern son
How was your trip to outer-space it sure did look like fun
You seem somewhat puzzled like you just can't readjust
You're covered in the battle scars and pitted up with rust

And your mom and dad have missed you and I'm sure your friends agree
There's no substitute for solitude and anonymity

After the big parade, when all the limelight fades
I'll be the one to kiss your eyes
The roar fades in the air like hope from a lover's prayer
The light from my heart begins to rise

[Chorus:]
And they said I couldn't love you and that it would never last
He's just a crazy boy just look at his past

I'm holding my last breath
It's burning in my lungs
Clenching up my eyes
Bloody up my tongue

For the words that might escape
Are ringing in my ears
Grinds me to a pulp

Lying here with you,
Listening to the rain,
Smiling just to see, The smile upon your face,
These are the moments, I thank God that I'm alive,
These are the moments, I'll remember all my life,
I found all I've waited for,
And I could not ask for more.
Looking in your eyes,

Lying here with you
Listening to the rain
Smiling just to see the smile upon your face
These are the moments I thank God that I'm alive
These are the moments I'll remember all my life
I found all I've waited for
And I could not ask for more

The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful
Stop me and steal my breath
And emeralds from mountains thrust towards the sky
Never revealing their depth

And tell me that we belong together
Dress it up with the trappings of love
I'll be captivated, I'll hang from your lips

The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful
Stop me and steal my breath
And emeralds from mountains thrust towards the sky
Never revealing their depth
Tell me that we belong together
Dress it up with the trappings of love
I'll be captivated, I'll hang from your lips
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above

Dreary Memphis city night,
Dark like a Kennedy's veil,
Shaky like them motorcycle lights,
Leading all them angels at hell,
I gave out my very last dime,
Laid out the bartenders all in a line,
We weren't fighting, we just drank 'em out of time,
Down at Printer's Alley,

Well I made a small fortune sellin used cars
And it's buried out back in a cookie jar
I raise a toast to Senior Escobar
For givin me a pot to piss in

Well I ran a little scam until '92
Now I hang around here for somethin to do

Say anything, save everything
If we say nothing this love will die
Give me just one word, you can scream or whisper
If you want to stay with me, tell me why
Say anything
It's not the words aren't there but they'd only fail my emotions
Just want to feel this way without chaining you down to some old cliche
You want water in my hands and we stand waist deep in the ocean

It's taken all this time to work you out
And if I wasn't sure before now I'm in no doubt
You're running out of things to say and I can see it in your face
You're going to throw it all away

[Chorus:]
Makes no difference what you say cause you can't hide it
Cause every moment slips away there's no denying

Yes all the vampires know my name
But they don't treat me quite the same
I've pulled the leather from my eyes
I've put all the stars back in your skies

[Chorus:]
I'm turning this life around
I broke all the chains that used to tie me down
