Lone Wolf Lyrics - Failer - Kathleen Edwards

He was the lone wolf you could see it in his eyes 

The way he held his heart the way he held his lies 

Sometimes he's just show up outside on the porch 

And hour at a time like a lonely whore 

She was a scarecrow the way she always looked around 

For something she once had and never could be found 

Time was on her side but she never kept track 

All the hunters came and took her memories back 

Once they met inside a dirty curtained room 

And the rain fell down hard that day onto the tin roof 

She said, "I've seen you before, I've been looking for you 

Better keep your heart close, hunters are coming for you" 

He said, "I've seen them a hundred times and I always get away 

'Cuz you will never stop looking and I will never stay" 

The lone wolf kissed her mouth like so many before 

Scarecrow closed her eyes and then she closed the door 

And the rain fell down on the tin roof when the hunters came that night 

Stole all of her memories, killed the wolf and all his lies
