woman.)

Ladies of the Sunset

Hello my friend do you concur
that this world spins like the steel spurs
dug into our hearts by the ladies of the sunset
I'm quite a sight to behold
painting the romance road
on the cliffsides of my skin
damned if she didn't just run straight through
my soul stops to begin again
and I say what’s a foolish boy to do
well my friend I think we agree
that women hold the key to our destiny
me I'm a fool thinking 'bout the ladies of the sunset

Yes my friend I sure do concur
that this world spins like the steel spurs
dug into our hearts by the ladies of the sunset
I'd lasso the harvest moon
just to hear her diamond tune
to light the rest of my days
damn she can glare like a mare in heat
my mind races behind my face
gonna take time to get back on my feet
yeah my friend we're right in line
that women shift the sands of our time
me I sit and drool thinking 'bout the ladies of the sunset

Ladies of the sunset
senorita with musky midnight eyes
do I register anything in your Everest heart?
la belle dame sans regret
la dolce vita dreaming 'neath purple skies
may I have this dance before I depart
I'm looking to hang my hat on a love so true
tell me now that's what you're thinking too
come first light the train leaves for Joliet
so tell me tell me my lady of the sunset

That ol' female persuasion
is seriously persuading me tonight
the blood rushes elation
I give in without a fight
my body sings like the river wide
to whom do I owe such a debt
a stampede on my silly pride
courtesy the ladies of the sunset

Yeah that ol' feminine mystique
is seriously mystifying me tonight
the heart begins to leak
I'm dying to take flight
my body sings like the river wide
to whom do I owe such a debt
happy to be taken for a ride
I love you lady of the sunset

Ladies of the sunset
senorita with musky midnight eyes

may I have this dance before I depart
I'm looking to hang my hat on a love so true
tell me now that's what you're thinking too
come first light the train leaves for Joliet
so tell me tell me my lady of the sunset

Oh I won’t soon forget
I love you sweet lady of the sunset

the 'lyrics' smack of one being mesmerized by the lady's savvy...could be quite good for a melody...wanting to persuade an elusive woman who knows she has attracted someone...nice one!

such an excellent share, ladies of the sunset, is a excellent and every good expression, for happiness to be found, what a beautiful declaration, and a melody
