|
Divorcee goes to the bars |
|
A sophisticat pulls up in his car |
|
A hopeful youth waits for the first star to come out |
|
The sky above can be so mean, the clouds cover what should be seen |
|
And there ain't much left too keen in my book |
|
Hangin' on to someone else, he tells you that peace sells |
|
And you see him like all's well, I ain't jealous |
|
Though you used to listen to me, |
|
My inner thoughts have made you flee |
|
I know you were just tryin' to be what you want to be |
|
I let you in to see me for real |
|
And you walked right out that's what I feel |
|
You said you needed time to be alone |
|
Chorus: |
|
And like the youth I looked above |
|
Feeling stranded without love |
|
The time was wrong, and you left me in a hole |
|
You left me in hole (you left me in a hole) |
|
You left me in hole |
|
The rain it comes, the rain it goes |
|
The question is, she friend or foe |
|
The story-teller looks to his toes, he's stuck here |
|
The dragon's breath is on my neck |
|
Which way is home, hold on a sec |
|
The bartender put a bottle of beer on the table |
|
Many people, they believe that Jesus came here to relieve |
|
All the problems that we breathe on each other |
|
And I don't care just what you do, |
|
or what you think, that's up to you |
|
You see, those thoughts of yours are not new to me at all |
|
And is it these thoughts that made you believe |
|
That there's nothing here so you shall leave |
|
While I sit here with my guitar in my hand |
|
( Chorus ) |
|
A hungry baby starts to cry, an old man's about to die |
|
And all I can do is sit back and sigh, what's my problem |
|
Ignore the problem, that's the key |
|
said the woman beneath the tree |
|
If your eyes are closed, you can't see the sunrise |
|
The phone, it rings, who could it be |
|
Well, it ain't her, and it's not for me |
|
Forgetting's as easy as 1-2-3 my friends say |
|
Her face is still all too clear, her leaving me was my biggest fear |
|
something's got to help me steer away from her |
|
You have your life, and I have mine, |
|
Maybe we'll meet again some other time |
|
Down the long road, on another plain |
|
( Chorus ) |
|
You left me in hole (you left me in a hole)... |
