Lyrics

[00:02.150]
[00:25.880] Come on baby hold me close
[00:28.400] Let me do my best to both
[00:30.700] Let me ride let it roll
[00:32.650]
[00:35.160] I was there to catch a man
[00:37.510] I thought I had him by the hand
[00:39.680] I only had him by the glove
[00:42.250]
[00:54.010] Come on baby let me in
[00:56.040] You can show yourself to him
[00:58.870] You can show me through the doors
[01:01.340]
[01:03.170] And I was there catching air
[01:05.650] Thought I had him by the hand
[01:07.950] I only had him by the glove
[01:10.960]
[01:12.700] We was there in the road
[01:15.060] Picking diamonds from a tree
[01:17.470] Heard a wolf coming through
[01:19.520]
[01:21.800] Coming through and coming hard
[01:24.290] Tried to leave the heat and gone
[01:26.660] Tried to lean against the wall
[01:29.090]
[01:50.150] I'll be there coming clean
[01:52.400] Like a runner in the wind
[01:54.860] Coming through the morning light
[01:56.780]
[01:59.460] Rising in in the stone
[02:01.750] Tried to leave the heat at home
[02:04.060] Running through the morning dim
[02:06.240]
[02:08.730] And I was there to catch a man
[02:10.930] I thought I had him by the hand
[02:13.220] I only had him by the glove
[02:15.500]
[02:18.130] Come on baby let me close
[02:20.450] Let me do my best to both
[02:22.870] Run through but cut close
[02:25.340]
[02:36.900] Come on baby let me in
[02:39.210] You can show yourself to him
[02:41.560] Ride the road ride it rough
[02:43.670]
[02:46.230] Yeah in the day I was gone
[02:48.580] Tried to leave the heat at home
[02:50.780] Run through and run the road
[02:53.060]
[02:55.550] I was there coming clean
[02:57.870] Like a runner in the wind
[03:00.100] Coming through the morning light
[03:02.270]
[03:04.800] You'll be there on the floor
[03:07.270] Picking diamonds from a stone
[03:09.520] Looking through the totem pole
