Comes a knockin' at my door
There's a limousine outside
And I know whom it's for
And I heard it bein' read
And I heard it bein' said
Aw, that the comfort in your head
And I wonder if it doesn't create a sense of shame
In the middle of the night
Comes a knockin' at my door
There's a limousine outside
And I know whom it's for
And you're leanin' on your wheel in your car
As you walk to the top of the hill
And you hope the will in your mind
Does not jump from the edge to the climb
With a sense of shame
It was the time before the last
And you did not give up
And I threw you on the ground
And you did not get up
And I don't know why
And I don't know why
But the tears in your eyes
It made me want to cry
But with a sense of shame
It was the time before the last
W e did not make up
And I threw you on the ground
And you did not get up
And I don't know why
And I don't know why
Something in your eyes
It made me want to cry
With a sense of shame
You meet me heather deep
I bury your heart on my knees all the time
In the middle of the night
Comes a knockin' at my door
There's a limousine outside
And I know who it's for
In the middle of the night Comes a knockin' at my door There's a limousine outside And I know whom it's for And I heard it bein' read And I heard it bein' said Aw, that the comfort in your head And I wonder if it doesn't create a sense of shame In the middle of the night Comes a knockin' at my door There's a limousine outside And I know whom it's for And you're leanin' on your wheel in your car As you walk to the top of the hill And you hope the will in your mind Does not jump from the edge to the climb With a sense of shame It was the time before the last And you did not give up And I threw you on the ground And you did not get up And I don't know why And I don't know why But the tears in your eyes It made me want to cry But with a sense of shame It was the time before the last W e did not make up And I threw you on the ground And you did not get up And I don't know why And I don't know why Something in your eyes It made me want to cry With a sense of shame You meet me heather deep I bury your heart on my knees all the time In the middle of the night Comes a knockin' at my door There's a limousine outside And I know who it's for Explain Request ×
