By townes van zandt |
|
Your eyes seek conclusion in all this confusion of mine |
|
Though you and i both know it's only the warm glow of wine |
|
That's got you to feeling this way, but i don't care, |
|
I want you to stay |
|
And hold me and tell me you'll be here to love me today |
|
Children are dancin', the gamblers are chancin' their all |
|
The window's accusing the door of abusing the wall |
|
But who cares what the night watchmen say |
|
The stage has been set for the play |
|
Hold me and tell me you'll be here to love me today |
|
The moon's come and gone but a few stars hang on on to the sky |
|
The wind's runnin' free but it ain't up to me ask why |
|
The poets are demanding their pay |
|
They've left me with nothin' to say |
|
'cept hold me and tell me you'll be here to love me today |
|
Just hold me and tell me that you'll be here to love me today |
