Hey, no, I don't want you to go
When you do my head falls off and goes.
Where am I? Everything is spinning
I thought I was off in another place winning.
I'm not losing though, I feel so numb inside
The whiskey has wiped my slate to seem so blind.
I love you, don't leave me all alone
I'm drunk, I know, but I'd love you to moan.
Moan my name and call for loving gains
That kill and murder every little pain.
I've forgotten my name as I walk by foot
To a place forgotten where there is no loot.
Its already 8 o' clock baby, what a mess
To sit around and wait for your heart.
Please know I love you and don't make a test
To see if I'm true and I don't try to be smart.
I love you so very very much Leilah, love
When you come around the powers of the sun flow.
I'm exploding over and over with your glove
Fitting my hand like a squeezing sun that glows.
Damn, I miss you, where did you go?
Hours go by to make the pain so slow.
Minutes fly to make the gain too low
Seconds fall to let the grain taste glow.
You taste so good by the riverside at noon
And in the morning by the bridge thats' soon
To fall over and play it cool as it swoons
Like the war-mongering platoon that tunes
In to the station with the lies that come in June
Under the summer sky, 'neath the pretty moon.
Your face is beautiful like the goliath dunes
In the sand in the desert that spin with huge monsoons.
I'm nearing you, there, in your saloon
Where you're having your hair painted blue
Although its pretty as it is right now
You don't believe me when I have to vow.
My mind corrodes to the pains of yesterday
But it flows so elegantly to the joy of today.
The sun shines radiantly-- its a brand new day
To tell the wife and children that its time to play.
Hey! Its time to play, baby, don't come too soon
Because I'm waiting for you 'neath the blue moon.
I'm not leaving until you come right through--
God, I'm real drunk and I'm badly missing you.
