Lyrics

Joe DiMaggio's Glove

I'm always my own guy, I do what I need to get by

I believe my way is the only way

Flattery is a dull blade

So I won't use that to get my point made

'Cause you're far too smart, I'm not smart enough

I never answer to on-one, I always walk, 'cause I can't run

Hand-to-mouth, and day to day

But my pride is killing me

I just can't get where I want to be

I'm lost, I need someone to show the way

Couldn't see for looking, staring at the sun

I had no idea of what was to come

All summer it was only you

You were a gift from above

Two hearts could only beat as one

We could not get enough

I've never been completely lost

I've never been so in love

How did my heart become so soft?

Like Joe DiMaggio's glove

I don't like the telephone

And I don't much mind if I am alone

The right place and the right time are here and now

I live in the moment

And I don't say things that I never meant

And I won't promise that which I cannot do

I couldn't see for looking, staring at the sun

I had no warning of what was to come

All summer it was only you

Just the sound of your voice

Two hearts could only beat as one

I did not have a choice

I've never been completely lost

Never been so in love

How did my heart become so soft?

Like Joe DiMaggio's glove

I don't know how, I don't know why

All I know now is that I will never be the same again

All summer it was only you

You were a gift from above

Two hearts could only beat as one

We could not get enough

I've never been completely lost

I've never been so in love

How did my heart become so soft?

Like Joe DiMaggio's glove

How did my heart become so soft?

Like Joe DiMaggio's glove
