LAST NIGHT I DREAMT THAT SOMEBODY LOVED ME
20 years or more
seems like yesterday
hung your secrets from
the judas tree
watched 'em blow down
to the valley floor
blowin' home, watched
'em blow away
and what I fear is what we all fear
a fortune lost, a fortune gained
cursed by the power of the
blue head flame
got so drunk, I took things back
things I never said
things I never stole from anyone
dug in the clay, red on my hands
guilty to the elbows,
never mind my hands
kept my nose clean,
kept it that way for you
now what I fear, is what we all fear
All Cried Out
You took your time to come back this time,
The grass has grown under your feet,
In your absence I changed my mind
Now someone else is sitting in your seat.
I know, that I said, there'd be no one else,
I know, that I said I'd be true
But baby, I broke cupid's arrow
And here's the short and narrow
I've nothing left to offer you, 'cos I'm
All cried out
You took a whole lotta lovin' for a handful o' nothin'
All cried out
It's hard to give you somethin' when you're pushin' an' a shovin' me around.
So don't look surprised,
There was no disguise.
You knew where I stood, from the start
So, stop! Look around you,
You're right back where I found you
Take back your cold and empty heart.
All cried out
You took a whole lotta lovin' for a handful o' nothin'
All cried out
It's hard to give you somethin' when you're pushin' an' a shovin' me around.
You go your way and I'll go mine
I won't stay around here
Don't you waste my time
(All cried out)
You took a whole lotta lovin' for a handful o' nothin'
(All cried out)
It's hard to give you somethin' when you're pushin and a shovin'
(All cried out)
You took a whole lotta lovin'
(All cried out)
It's hard to give you somethin' when you're pushin' an' a shovin' me around.
