| Well all the little sweethearts of a Saturday night
|
| Got their hair done up so pretty, their makeup’s just fine
|
| And all the Queen Street cowboys out there standing in line
|
| Just stalking out the mystery of a Saturday night
|
| Well the cancer spread so quickly, left me wondering why
|
| If life is for the living, why do I even try?
|
| So I switched from beer to whisky, think I’m doing just fine
|
| And I slipped into the shadows of a Saturday night
|
| Well there’s white smoke rising up off the coast
|
| Heaven surrounds me now
|
| And it’ll be no joke now that everyone knows
|
| You got something to live for now
|
| So I slipped in through your window hoping you wouldn’t mind
|
| If I wanted to lay with you babe, just for the night
|
| Who don’t love a little company, even if it’s a surprise
|
| When I told you that you look lovely, you said you wanted to die
|
| Well there’s white smoke rising up off the coast
|
| Heaven surrounds me now
|
| And it’ll be no joke now that everyone knows
|
| You got something to live for now
|
| But I thought as I got older, I’d get on my feet again
|
| And now it’s hard just staying sober
|
| I get all mixed up again
|
| I get all mixed up again
|
| And I woke up in the morning feeling barely alive
|
| And I wanted to say something that could make things alright
|
| So baby if you’re listening, won’t you send me a sign?
|
| I know you get so lonely, but ain’t that just life? |
