Альбом Lucinda Williams

I've droven my car in the middle of the night
I just wanted to see you so bad
The road was dark but the stars were bright
I just wanted to see you so bad
It didn't matter what my friends would say
I was gonna see you anyway
I just wanted to see you so bad
I just wanted to see you so bad

You were stayin' in a big hotel
I just wanted to see you so bad
I didn't know you very well
I just wanted to see you so bad
We'd always talked on the telephone
But I'd never been with you all alone
I just wanted to see you so bad
I just wanted to see you so bad

I got off on the seventh floor
I just wanted to see you so bad
I couldn't have asked for anything more
I just wanted to see you so bad
I saw your face so clear and bright
I must have been crazy but it sure felt right
I just wanted to see you so bad
I just wanted to see you so bad
I just wanted to see you so bad
I just wanted to see you so bad

Sylvia was workin' as a waitress in Beaumont
She said, "I'm movin' away, I'm gonna get what I want
I'm tired of these small town boys that don't move fast enough
I'm gonna find me one who wears a leather jacket
And likes his livin' rough"

So she saved her tips and overtime and bought an old rusty car
She sold most everything she had to make a brand new start
She said, "I won't be needing these silly dresses and nylon hose
'Cause when I get to where I'm goin'
I'm gonna buy me all new clothes"

The night's too long, it just drags on and on
And then there's never enough
That's when the sun starts comin' up
Don't let go of her hand
You just might be the right man

She loves the night
She loves the night
She doesn't want the night
Don't want it to end
Don't want it to end

Well she works in an office now and she guesses the pays all right
She can buy a few new things to wear and still go out at night
And as soon as she gets home from work
She wants to be out with the crowd
Where she can dance and toss her hair back and laugh out loud

Well the music's playin' fast and they just met
He presses up against her
And his shirt's all soaked with sweat
And with her back against the bar, she can listen to the band
And she's holdin' a Corona and it's cold against her hand

The night's too long, it just drags on and on
And then there's never enough
That's when the sun starts comin' up
Don't let go of her hand
You just might be the right man

She loves the night
She loves the night
She doesn't want the night
Don't want it to end
Don't want it to end
Don't want it to end

All of my love has been taken for granted
I've been fair but you've been underhanded
I've been disgraced but I can't bear to face it
'Cause the truth is my heart has been abandoned

I was hoping for Heaven but baby I ain't blind
This ain't the first time I've been undermined
Sad eyes and crooked smile that I remember well
Now it looks like all I got is time to kill

You can't fool me, I see it in your eyes
You can't fool me, I see it in your eyes
Everything I thought we had, has all been cast aside
You can't fool me, I see it in your eyes

These boots are the same boots I was wearing then
And this beer I'm drinkin' is still the same old brand
But these blues are something new, they came around when I lost you
And it looks like I got stuck with an empty hand

You can't fool me, I see it in your eyes
You can't fool me, I see it in your eyes
Everything I thought we had, has all been cast aside
You can't fool me, I see it in your eyes
You can't fool me, I see it in your eyes

Everything is goin' wrong
It's not right anymore
We can't seem to get along
The way we did before

Sun is hangin' in the sky
Sinkin' low and so am I
Just for the love of someone
And a big red sun

How am I gonna lose
These big red sun blues
Big red sun, big red sun
Big red sun blues

True love to hold
Is worth everything
It's worth more than gold
Or any diamond ring

But this little diamond
And a heart that's been broken
Are all I got from you
Big red sun

How am I gonna lose
These big red sun blues
Big red sun, big red sun
Big red sun blues

Look out at the western sky
Out over the open plains
God only knows why
This is all that remains

But give me one more promise
And another kiss
And I guess the deal's still on
You big red sun

How am I gonna lose
These big red sun blues
Big red sun, big red sun
Big red sun blues

How am I gonna lose
These big red sun blues
Big red sun, big red sun
Big red sun blues

It's okay you don't have to be afraid
There's nothing to worry about
Cuz we got it made
It's just a simple matter of
Letting me into love
If you let that feeling come over you
Than there's nothing more that you can do
Just let it go
Let it go
If it's love you want
Hold out your arms
It's alright here
It's safe and warm
It's okay to feel good
That's the way it should be
Everything we have is fresh and new
I will open myself up to you
Like a rose
Like a rose
Everything we have is fresh and new
I will open myself up to you
Like a rose
Like a rose

I changed the lock on my front door so you can't see me anymore
And you can't come inside my house, and you can't lie down on my couch
I changed the lock on my front door

I changed the number on my phone so you can't call me up at home
And you can't say those things to me that make me fall down on my knees
I changed the number on my phone

I changed the kind of car I drive so you can't see me when I go by
And you can't chase me up the street, and you can't knock me off of my feet
I changed the kind of car I drive

I changed the kind of clothes I wear so you can't see me anywhere
And you can't spot me in a crowd, and you can't call my name out loud
I changed the kind of clothes I wear

I changed the tracks underneath the train so you can't find me again
And you can't trace my path, and you can't hear my laugh
I changed the tracks underneath the train

I changed the name of this town so you can't follow me down
And you can't touch me like before, and you can't make me want you more
I changed the name of this town

I changed the lock on my front door, I changed the number on my phone
I changed the kind of car I drive, I changed the kind of clothes I wear

I changed the tracks underneath the train, I changed the name of this town
I changed the name of this town
I changed the name of this town

Is it too much to ask I want a comfortable bed
That won't hurt my back
Food to fill me up
And warm clothes and all that stuff

Shouldn't I have this, shouldn't I have this
Shouldn't I have all of this and

Passionate kisses
Passionate kisses, whoa oh oh
Passionate kisses from you

Is it too much to demand
I want a full house and a rock and roll band
Pens that won't run out of ink
And cool quiet and time to think

Shouldn't I have this, shouldn't I have this
Shouldn't I have all of this and

Passionate kisses
Passionate kisses, whoa oh oh
Passionate kisses from you

Do I want too much
Am I going overboard to want that touch
I shout it out to the night
"Give me what I deserve, 'cause it's my right"

Shouldn't I have this, shouldn't I have this
Shouldn't I have all of this and

Passionate kisses
Passionate kisses, whoa oh oh
Passionate kisses from you

Passionate kisses
Passionate kisses, whoa oh oh
Passionate kisses from you

Am I too blue for you?
Am I too blue?
When I cry like the sky
Like the sky sometimes
Am I too blue?

Is the night too black?
Is the wind too rough?
Is it at your back?
Have you had enough?

Do you miss my touch?
Do you wanna stay?
Do you have so much
Still left to say?

Am I too blue for you?
Am I too blue?
When I cry like the sky
Like the sky sometimes
Am I too blue?

When you're in the dark
Do you call my name?
Is there still a spark?
Does it feel the same?

The sun beats down
It burns your skin
When you run into
My arms again

Am I too blue for you?
Am I too blue?
When I cry like the sky
Like the sky sometimes
Am I too blue?

Am I too blue for you?
Am I too blue?
When I cry like the sky
Like the sky sometimes
Am I too blue?

You wait in the car on the side of the road
Lemme go and stand awhile
I wanna know you're there
But I wanna be alone

If only for a minute or two
I wanna see what it feels like to be without you
I wanna know the touch of my own skin
Against the sun, against the wind

I walked out in a field, the grass was high
It brushed against my legs
I just stood and looked out at the open space
And a farmhouse out a ways

And I wondered about the people who lived in it
And I wondered if they were happy and content
Were there children and a man and a wife?
Did she love him and take her hair down at night?

If I stray away too far from you
Don't go and try to find me
It doesn't mean I don't love you
It doesn't mean I won't come back and stay beside you

It only means, I need a little time
To follow that unbroken line
To a place where the wild things grow
To a place where I used to always go

If only for a minute or two
I wanna see what it feels like to be without you
I wanna know the touch of my own skin
Against the sun, against the wind

It weighs a lot, it costs a lot
But it's worth a whole lot more
But it's not something you could afford anyway
'Cause you weren't careful with my love
You lost the key to the door of my heart
Now there's a price you have to pay

You can shop around and look around
But you'll never find
Another one quite like this one any place
And believe me it won't be easy
To repair it this time 'cause it's my heart
And there's a price you have to pay

It's my heart and there's a price you have to pay
Enough is enough
You played too rough with my heart
Now there's a price you have to pay

Well, it's broken and there's nothin'
That I can do now
I can fix it but it won't ever be the same
I can pick up all the pieces
And start over somehow but it's my heart
And there's a price you have to pay

It's my heart and there's a price you have to pay
Enough is enough
You played too rough with my heart
Now there's a price you have to pay

Enough is enough
You played too rough with my heart
Now there's a price you have to pay

I was born in Louisiana, I was raised in Algiers
And everywhere I been, the peoples all say
Ain't nothing in rambling, either running around
Well, I believe I'll marry, oooo, wooo, Lord, and settle down

I was walking through the alley with my hand in my coat
The police start to shoot me, thought it was something I stole
You know it ain't nothing in rambling, either running around
Well, I believe I'll marry, oooo, wooo, Lord, and settle down

The peoples on the highway is walking and crying
Some is starving, some is dying
You know it ain't nothing in rambling, either running around
Well, I believe I'll marry, oooo, wooo, Lord, and settle down

You may go to Hollywood and try to get on the screen
But I'm gonna stay right here and eat these old charity beans
'Cause it ain't nothing in rambling, either running around
Well, I believe I'll marry, oooo, wooo, Lord, and settle down

If I had my way
I'd be in your town
I might not stay
But at least I would've been around

'Cause there's something about what happens
When we talk
Something about what happens
When we talk

Does this make sense
It doesn't matter anyway
Is it coincidence?
Or was it meant to be?

'Cause there's something about what happens
When we talk
Something about what happens
When we talk

And conversation with you
Was like a drug
It wasn't your face
So much as it was your words

'Cause there's something about what happens
When we talk
Something about what happens
When we talk

I can't stick around
I'm going back south
But all I regret now
Is I never kissed your mouth

'Cause there's something about what happens
When we talk
Something about what happens
When we talk

Something about what happens
When we talk
Something about what happens
When we talk

I can't seem to make it through Sunday
I can't seem to make it through Sunday

Monday through Saturday I get by just fine
Every other day of the week I feel alright
But I don't know why
I don't know why

I can't seem to make it through Sunday
I can't seem to make it through Sunday

Sunday's supposed to be the day for kicking off your shoes
But how come that's the day I always get the blues
And I don't know why
I don't know why

I can't seem to make it through Sunday
I can't seem to make it through Sunday

Ever since you had to go I just carry on
But deep down inside I know there's something wrong
And I don't know why
I don't know why

I can't seem to make it through Sunday
I can't seem to make it through Sunday
I can't seem to make it through Sunday
I can't seem to make it through Sunday
I can't seem to make it through Sunday
I can't seem to make it through Sunday
