Darling

Won't you hold me through the shakes darlin'? Well, it's fine if you cut and run At first light of a cresting sun Right now I'm feenin' And if you're still in town When my better days roll around We'll heat this ground and dance like two hearts bleedin' The city is so loud and the hotel kicked me out Do you think that she's still proud of lookin' down The world got so confusin' I'm a tool for cheap amusement And they all hate me from here to Tennessee So hold me through the shakes, although it's more than I can take There ain't no choice for damaged boys like me Hold me through the shakes, although its more than you can take And when you wake you'll still be my darling And when you wake I'm yours to take, darling Let me have my bloody knuckles All my nights of dark cold trouble When I was through I was hopin' you might wait for me Laid me out to be Something I don't understand How I am just a man, my darling Now I'm lost in Denver With a postcard I could send ya But I don't know of any good it'd do So I'll photograph the lights 'Cause they remind me of your eyes And pray for you until I untangle this blue But hold me through the shakes, although it's more than I can take There ain't no choice for damaged boys like me Hold me through the shakes, although its more than you can take And when you wake you'll still be my darling When you wake I'm yours to take, darling Well, hold me through the shakes, although it's more than I can take There ain't no choice for damaged boys like me Hold me through the shakes, although its more than you can take And when you wake you'll still be my darling When you wake I'm yours to take, darling
