Lack of Lovers at an early ageSeemed to fill me up with rageWith jealousy & envy babeI seem to hate you for the love you madeA crumpled bumper, some scattered drugs12 French kisses & a shotgun slugLookin' back it's been hard to judgeIf my innocence was not a little too muchSteppin' off the Salt Lake bus I bumped in to the dream of usBut she was such a frenzied fussI only followed her home out of pity & lustBut the air was blue & the sky was cleanOut where the western streems did seemTo shine like it was all a dreamUnlike New York where I have beenI look awayI look awayNow she said she come from by the lakeAnd her eyes were blue & her thoughts had weightRight there she coulda set me straightAnd say I come along just a little too lateBut the drinks they came & the drinks they wentSongtexteShe rode with me where the road was bentBy the inn of 8's the night we spentTalkin' away inside an iron tentNow by the time the sky went gun bolt blueI believed I was in love with youBut it was much more than I could doTo look at youLook at you (Well look atcha!)I look awayI look awayLack of lovers at an early ageSeemed to fill me up with rageWith jealousy & envy babeI seemed to hate you for the love you madeNow 'til I kissed you in the Wasatch dawn'til I held your little handI was a tumble weed, a cowboy songI was moving on, moving onNow here we are and lookin' backMovin', standin' still in fact1,00 more miles down the tracksWe put the western sunset at our backs& it's still you my salty saintIt's you who's everything I ain'tYou give me balance when I'm feelin faintI write your name on my heart in forever paint Aus Songtexte Mania
