Darling

Really can't remember where I left my spine Carrying my body in a bag for dimes Hidden in the pages of the New York Times at home And maybe I'll be better if I take my meds Ain't a double header if you lose your head Tried a medication that I bought instead It's working for a little but there's not much left Darling don't you weep There's a place for me Somewhere we can sleep See you in your dreams Ever since a little girl, I found it sweet Driving past a graveyard on a lonesome street All the little flowers gave me something to believe in Never knew the feeling of a stable home Been a couple years of living on the road Couldn't really tell you where they'd leave a stone To visit me when I am dead and gone Darling don't you weep There's a place for me Somewhere we can sleep See you in your dreams Darling don't you cry Head fast toward the light Foolish men have tried But only you have shown me how to love being alive Until it's time to see the light I'll make my own with you each night I'll kidnap all the stars and I will keep them in your eyes I'll wrap them up in velvet twine And hang them from a fishing line So I can see them any time I'd like Darling don't you weep There's a place for me Somewhere we can sleep I'll see you in your dreams Darling don't you cry Head fast toward the light Foolish men have tried But only you have shown me how to love being alive
