Good Scare

Are you planning
To love me through the bars of a golden cage?
Don't make yourself
Sick with the wanting, skittish thing

When you said you couldn't swing it,
You gave me a good scare
For a minute there
I had never seen that look
From you before
You were eyeing all the exits

Feels like I've been
On your heels for a lifetime
Flew north to find you
Without knowing that was why

You make me want to write the country song
Folks here in New York get a kick out of
I'd sing about
Knockin' you up under Tennessee stars
In the bed of
My red Chevrolet pickup

You might give me a good scare
For a minute there
But I'll say, "Well, I've seen that look
From you before"
When you start eyeing all the exits
When you start eyeing all the exits

You might give me a good scare
For a minute there
But I'll say, "Well, I've seen that look
From you before"
When you start eyeing all the exits
When you start eyeing all the exits
