For you, I'm fine for now
For me, there's only you
I know, I know
I should leave
I know
I speak the truth
I'm not the one
You'll only hang on
If nothing else
Comes along
You're still looking back
I'm looking the other way
Someone who feels like that
Is someone who isn't gonna stay
I'm not the one
You'll only hang on
If nothing else
Comes along
Yeah, it's cruel
To let me love like I do
When you want
What you don't have
And when all I have is you
I'm not the one
You'll only hang on
If nothing else
Comes along

Devotion

I know that these days
Devotion's a dirty word
But my baby's all I wanna do
You may talk louder
But I don't hear a word
Conviction wasted
On something that ain't true
There's an evil that runs
Through this town
I can feel it in the wind that whips my hair
I've seen some strange things as the
Years have come and passed
Strange things they come to pass
Oh way out there
It isn't in me
To look the other way
And when I look
I look right through you
You're always starving
But don't choke on the cake
When you force me
To watch you eat it, too
There's an evil that runs
Through this town
I can feel it in the wind that whips my hair
I've seen some strange things as the
Years have come and passed
Strange things they come to pass
Oh way out there
I know that these days
Devotion's a dirty word
But my baby...

Saw you as a drifter in my dream
Blew into town
In a tumbleweed
You asked if you could stay with me
Breakfast is never really complete
Without a cigarette
And a black coffee
Fry up some more bacon, babe, for me
In the country you find peace
The city, sin, you see
Can't live without either one
So come with me
I promise we'll have fun
Many light years above the earth
You found
A short reprieve
Won't you tell me all about what you have seen?
Honey, life's a laughing matter, so I say
But what I think is
The joke's on me
I'm as sad a clown as ever you will see
Leaving town with money
Leaving with a grin
Toward another western sunset
For the win
Oh, I could take you all the places I have been
Oh, I would take you all the places I have been

Wolf Moon

You've been had, kid
Well, it happens to the best of us
You've been had, kid
Well, it happens to the best of us
Don't go down that road feeling bad
That wolf moon
Plays tricks on us
That wolf moon
Plays tricks on us
Gravity is all that brings me down
Coming back from the dead
Takes a little time
Dump trucks take the garbage
I take your trashy mind
Gravity is all that brings me down
You've been had, kid
Well, it happens to the best of us
You've been had, kid
Well, it happens to the best of us
Don't go down that road feeling bad.
