Crack like thunder and I'm awake
Sweat makes me shiver cold
Like a burning fever I cannot shake
This is getting old
“I confess,†is what you said
Standing still as stone
Cryin' “I'd sooner be dead
When you're not homeâ€
Your voice it comes out pure
You could use some rest I'm sure
I'm gonna play pretty, gonna make ‘em dance slow
Say goodnight, I gotta go
I, I'll be comin' back soon and I
Just thought that you should know
That I, I have always loved you
Sometimes it doesn't show
No matter where you are
Or where I go
I, I have always loved you and I
Just thought that you should know
Lost in wonder, but I don't blink
A few more hours left to go
She comes over to buy me a drink
Said she drove in to see the show
Now I'm talkin' to her
And thinkin' of you
As I slip out the back door
Realize you're strong and true
More than I give you credit for
I'm tired but not abused
Could sleep but what's the use
Gonna play pretty, gonna make ‘em dance
Real, real slow
