See her how she flies. Golden sails across the sky. Close enough to touch. But careful if you try. Though she looks as warm as gold. The moon's a harsh mistress.
When I was a little boy. You came walking down my street. I was only ten years old. And my heart fell at your feet. And now you've grown and grown and grew.
Long ago, as we went through the sand. Holding each other's hand. And you would draw me closer to you. And whisper words. That I had never heard. You made them sound so true.
All around the water tank, waiting for a train. A thousand miles away from home, sleeping in the rain. I walked up to a brakeman just to give him a line of talk.
Dear sweetheart, as I write to you. My heart is filled with pain. For if these things I hear are true. I'll never see you again. . They tell me, darlin', that tonight.
Why must I meet you in a secret rendezvous?. Why must we steal away to steal a kiss or two?. Why must we wait to do the things we want to do?. Why, oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why?.
I woke up this morning. The blues all around my bed. I woke up this morning. The blue's all around my bed. I didn't have nobody. To hold my aching head.
For weary weeks I waited. And hoping for the best. But blues will make me ramble. And the rails are leading west. . I'm feeling oh, so lonesome. Pleasure I can't find.
I'm lonely and blue, I'm down hearted too. Nobody but you can cheer me. You left me alone, you wandered from home. Oh, why do you roam, my dearie?. . You promised you'd be just mine, sweetheart.
Frankie and Johnny were sweethearts oh Lordy how they did love. Swore to be true to each other true as the stars above. He was her man he was doing her wrong.
Standing on the corner, I didn't mean no harm. Along come the police, he took me by the arm. It was down in Memphis, corner of Beale and Main. He says "big boy, you'll have to tell me your name".

I'll pack my grip for a farewell trip. Kiss Susie Jane goodbye at the fountain. I'm going, said I, to the land of the sky. Away out on the mountain. .
Oh ley-he-he-he, ah-le-oh-lay-he-he-he. D'yo-del-ay-he-he, d'yo-del-ay-hee. . I just received your letter. You're down and out, you say. At first I thought I would tell you.
Gee but i'm blue and so lonenely i dont know what to do but dream of you, just dream of you.. Dreams don't come true, still i can keep from dreams and dreams of you, that's all i do, just.
Have Love,. Oh baby I'll travel (aha, oh yeah). Have a Have a Have a Love. Oh baby I'll travel (aha, oh yeah). And if you need lovin' then, uhuh, I'll travel.
I am the laugh of the fool. Thinking that I could win. By breaking all the rules. Letting pride get in my way. Didn't care what I would say. Hide behind guilty disguise.
Now won't you listen dearie while I say,. how can you tell me that you're goin' away?. Don't say that we must part, don't break my aching heart. You know I've loved you truly many years,.
I'm in the middle of your bed. But your pushed to the side of it. And your hands are tucked in to your sleeves. No luck in reaching them. . We could be fire.
