Old Blacktop

Too many nights been sitting alone And missing you kills me more than you'll know The hardest thing is to keep from my mind Is quietly loving you night after night And it's so hard to see When you're gone from me The starless nights run deep to my soul Your romance and roses all day tired me so And drowning your eyes with whisky and wine And walking on home with this phone in my pride And it's so hard to see When you're gone from me So kiss me sweetness and take away my pain I've far too many bruises I've hidden in shame So give me your bed to rest my weary head And let me lie with you tonight And it's so hard to see When you're gone from me So kiss me sweetness and take away my pain I've far too many bruises I've hidden in shame So give me your bed to rest my weary head And let me lie with you tonight And it's so hard to leave When you're close to me And, and it's so hard to leave When you're close to me
