Naomi

Naomi she sits on her seventh floor bed

While she's on my wavelength I'm out of her head

My mind is with her all morning and evening

But I can't bear the thought of her

She's leaving her hometown for pastures anew

Made no further plans just left out of the blue

And I've nothing left to search for a reason

That I can't find

Every little time I close my eyes

I see another love I've left behind

I'm wide awake I'm searching for a sign

That isn't just another waste of time

Am I blind?

Naomi she sits on her seventh floor stairs

Oh I catch myself thinking of things that she said

And now that she's gone these memories ain't leaving

But I can't bear the thought of her

Now I'm married to whiskey and I mingle with wine

Lord I love her so much that I'm losing my mind

No cigarette smoke alleviates the feeling

God knows that I've tried

Every little time I close my eyes

I see another love I've left behind

I'm wide awake I'm searching for a sign

That isn't just another waste of time

Every little time I close my eyes

I see another love I've left behind

I'm wide awake I'm searching for a sign

That isn't just another waste of time

Am I blind?

Think I'll give up this time

I can't get to sleep no I've been up all night

Think I'll give up this time

Is falling to pieces just the way I'm wired?

Think I'll give up this time

I'd drown in the deep end if we kept on trying

Think I'll give up this time
