Three days of snow in a burnin' hell,
Bet you're wonderin' where I am, Rang that number all night long, Got no comfort on the telephone, Went out and caught me a midnight flight, Thought a little love would make it all alright, But the landlord said you moved away and left me all of your bills to pay, Look out baby I think you might have made your move too soon. He left me with a Keno card, livin' in Vegas ain't too hard, I ran it up to about 50 grand, counted it out and held it in my hand, That kinda word will get around, and make a lost love come up found, I hear ya knockin' baby at my door, but you don't live here no more, Oh no, I think he made his move too soon. I've been from Spain to Tokyo, from Africa to Ohio, I never try to make the news, I'm just a man who sings those low down blues, I'll take my lovin everywhere, I come back to know they still care, One lover here, one love behind, one in my arms, one on my mind, One thing baby never make a move too soon Yeah baby, never make your move too soon, Well you can count on this baby, we never make a move too soon (Too soon) |

Broken heart, bloodshot stare
Signs of a fool who cared too much Now she's gone and he can't remember how To live without her touch Hopin' to die but surely livin' to tell When it comes to matters of the heart There is nothing a fool won't get used to So he found someone afraid his heart would follow the heat He could hardly do more than pretend Though she knew in her heart that his love was alive When it comes to matters of the heart There is nothing a fool won't get used to Now of all the things love teaches All the ways that it opens our eyes None more profound than the lesson he learned The day she walked out of his life Well when the road gets too narrow It's then he remembers her smile And he sees these words forming on her lips Across a river of tears he once cried When it comes to matters of the heart There is nothing a fool won't get used to |

They all said 'Louise was not half bad'
It was written on the walls & window shades And how she'd act A little girl The deceiver, don't believe her, That's her trade Sometimes a bottle of perfume Flowers, and maybe some lace Men bought Louise ten cent trinkets Their intentions were easily traced Everybody thought it kind of sad When they found Louise in her room They'd all put her down Below their kind Still some cried when she died That afternoon Louis rode home on a mail train Somewhere to the south I heard them say 'It's too bad it ended so ugly, It's too bad she had to go that' But the wind is blowin' cold tonight Goodnight Louise, Goodnight Yes, the winds' blowin' cold tonight Goodnight Louise, good-night... |

Let me tell you 'bout a friend of mine
He's a short order cook Long on speed, short on spice He reads his customers like a book He's seen this, and he's done that Now he's makin' fried eggs an art But there's one thing he can't fix no how There's a longing in his heart He's tried for years to work it out At the grill and at his home Well he talks to his friends, talks to himself He talks the chicken right off the bone Talks to his woman and she understands You know they're always eye to eye She runs the join, They live out back Small House under a Big sky Well even the stars at night agree The sky is falling apart She knows cause she can feel it too There's a longing in her heart A longing in her heart Longing in her heart Well now you and me, we're just like them We never wanted to be alone, So we made a pact, sealed with desire For a happier house and home Only to find it doens't untie The know where feelings die There's a longing deep inside our hearts And no one to tell us why Our friends aren't looking for anything new They wouldn't know where to look Well her, she like running the joint And he likes being a cook Together they're doing very well They're might glad they could But there's a fire burning towards them now Coming from a distant wood And eve the stars at night agree That the sky is falling apart We know 'cause we can feel it too There's a longing in our hearts |

Turn down the lights, turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head Lay down with me, tell me no lies Just hold me close, don't patronize Don't patronize me 'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't You can't make your heart feel something it won't Here in the dark, in these final hours I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power But you won't, no, you won't 'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't I'll close my eyes, then I won't see The love you don't feel when you're holding me Morning will come and I'll do what's right Just give me till then to give up this fight And I will give up this fight 'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't You can't make your heart feel something it won't Here in the dark, in these final hours I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power But you won't, no, you won't 'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't |

Sometimes I miss that feeling of falling
Falling on over the ledge You know I miss that feeling of falling Falling on over the ledge And when my mind it gets to worryin' And I just can't get no rest Oh Baby, that's when I call you up instead It's after midnight baby, I'm sittin' here all alone I tried to call your number baby, but you weren't at home I been a good girl baby, through with all that mess But the way I'm feelin' now, darlin' Well it scares me half to death Well I miss that feelin', of fallin' On over the ledge That summer night in Texas, baby Too hot and wet to sleep I heard you pull up in the distance You're comin' to get me relief We went screamin' down the highway, baby So much faster than we should You pulled me over in the moonlight Man, I still can feel that hood Well I miss that feeling of fallin', On over the ledge When that rain starts baby, I want to take a real Good look at that ledge It ain't something you get over You might think you made it through You can turn your head and walk away But it never takes it's eyes off you It'll push your foot right through the floorboard Make you cut them streamers down his back You waste what's precious and you can't afford It runs your life right off the track Keeps you boilin' in that poison Only the truly twisted know so well You don't need drugs to show you heaven, baby 'cause there's plenty clean in hell That miss that feelin' of fallin' Of fallin' on over the ledge When the blues start callin' I want to crawl way up close to the ledge |

A lady stands before an open window
Looking so far away She can almost feel the southern winds blow Gently touching his restless day He turns from his window to me Sad smile his apology Sad eyes reaching to the door Daylight loses to another evening Still he spares me words goodbye Sits alone beside me fighting his feelings Struggles to speak but in the end can only cry Suddenly it's so hard to find The sound of the words to speak his troubled mind So I'm offering ease to him as if to be kind There's a train every day Leading either way There's a world you know There's a way to go I soon believe it's just as well This is my opening farewell A child's drawings left there on the table And a woman's silk is lying on the floor I would keep them here if I were able To lock you safe behind it's open door Suddenly it's so clear to me That I'd ask you to see what you may never see Now my kind words find their way back to me There's a train every day Leading either way There's world you know Got a way to go I soon believe it's just as well This is my opening farewell This is my opening farewell. |
