When I lost you honey sometimes I think I lost my guts too
And I wish God would send me a word send me something I'm afraid to lose
Lying in the heat of the night like prisoners all our lives
I get shivers down my spine and all I wanna do is hold you tight
CHORUS:
I swear I'll drive all night just to buy you some shoes
And to taste your tender charms
And I just wanna sleep tonight again in your arms
Tonight there's fallen angels and they're waiting for us down in the street
Tonight there's calling strangers, hear them crying in defeat.
Let them go, let them go, let them go, do their dances of the dead (let'em go right ahead)
You just dry your eyes girl, and c'mon c'mon c'mon let's go to bed, baby, baby, baby
(CHORUS)
There's machines and there's fire waiting on the edge of town
They're out there for hire but baby they can't hurt us now
Cause you've got, you've got, you've got, you've got my love, you've got my love
Through the wind, through the rain, the snow, the wind, the rain
You've got, you've got my, my love heart and soul
Published on The River and played only during the tour. The song is an evolution of the SAD EYES interlude at the end of BACKSTREETS. It was first written for Darkness On The Edge Of Town, but the length of this track is much more suited to a double album such as The River, and there was no room for straight "love songs" on Darkness On The Edge Of Town, that's why it was left out. The song was first recorded in June 1977 but was likely remixed and finished during The River sessions. A harmonies version also exists.
Along with CADILLAC RANCH, was covered by Graziano Romani on a his 13 April 2002 show. This benefit show was later officially released: Graziano Romani, ADMO Benefit 13.4.2002.
