Tacoma (Live)

[Verse 1] Out there the sun is shining Down in San Francisco The place you tell everybody that you're from But you ever hardly ever get to go [Verse 2] I gave you shelter from the rain and in exchange You sang me to sleep with your songs Oh, my boy, don't try nothing Cause in the morning, you'll be gone [Chorus 1] It ain't that, I can't love you Just 'cause I can't own you It's just that you belong to the highway And I belong to Tacoma [Verse 3] Your beard looks rough, your life seems tough About as tough as your skin If I reached out and brushed back your hair Would you surrender and melt in [Verse 4] Oh my child, I bet you would You look like you ain't been touched in weeks It is so sad that I know how that feels I know exactly what that means [Chorus 2] Last thing I need is to put my heart Into the hands of a loner Oh 'cause you belong to the highway And I belong to Tacoma [Interlude - Harmonica Instrumental] [Verse 5] So make your way back to the couch and stay There for the rest of the night Even if I get weak and I call out your name Please don't come to my side [Chorus 3] Just remember me, soft and sweet With all the kindness that I've shown you Oh 'cause you belong to the highway And I belong to Tacoma
