Hunter | |
On a warm summer day, at the hour of my youth | |
I walked the four miles to your door | |
You wore a straw hat, high heels to match | |
And the whitest cotton dress I ever saw. | |
When I tried to hold you, you turned away | |
You don't have to tell me, it's all over your face | |
I can see the writing on the wall | |
And there's a distance in your eyes that says it all. | |
Read it and weep, I can't get no sleep | |
'Cause I know you won't change your mind tomorrow | |
I'm sinking under and I don't wanna lose you | |
This emptiness is more than I can handle. | |
You gave me no reason but you gave me a rhyme | |
I put the words to music and I was out of my mind | |
All I've got's the letters that I keep | |
And sometimes just before I go to sleep. | |
I read 'em and weep, you swept me off of my feet | |
Now I know, time's the only healer | |
This jealousy hurts, the thought of seeing you with someone else | |
Cuts like a knife into the heart of me. | |
Life is a river, it twists and it turns | |
But I'll get over you, babe, I'll live and I'll learn | |
The paper's full of January sales | |
I guess I won't be buying fairytales. | |
Read 'em and weep, cryin' in my sleep | |
'Cause I know I'm gonna be alone tomorrow | |
And I walked the four miles, yeah, I walked the four miles | |
In tears and sorrow. | |
This was the story, here's where it ends | |
Next time I'll be wiser, won't get let down again | |
I wanted you so badly but I failed | |
Now all I got's these little paper trails. | |
Read 'em and weep, read 'em and weep | |
Oh yeah, de de de | |
Read 'em and weep, read 'em and weep | |
Ah, ha. | |
I wanted you so badly but I failed | |
Now all I got's these little paper trails, ah. |
