Title: Lonesome To The Bone
Lyrics Lonesome To The BoneOn the park bench I slept on raindrops're fallin' on the newspapers coverin' me
I hear early morning motors and I know the world is waking for the dawn
But my mind's down a dark alley somewhere where last night you loved me
And in the early morning chill my arms remember still
But I'm droppin' like a stone lonesome to the bone
The sun is roughly risin' on the roofs of stagger town
The time for sweat and poison out is just now coming round
The high time of last midnight is over with and gone
Leavin' me to be lonesome to the bone
I walked away the wind blows and any way the wind goes will be good enough for me
The streets're loud and crowded but I walk my weary way lost and alone
Your hot breath and your laughter keep flashing through my mind to warm me
But the naked light of day soon makes it fade away
And I'm droppin' like a stone lonesome to the bone
The sun is roughly risin' on the roofs of stagger town
The time for sweat and poison out is just now coming round
The high time of last midnight is over with and gone
Leavin' me to be lonesome to the bone |
