Your man comes home baby you don't know what to do you can recall when he had time for you now you're longing for a love you once had and you can remember when he was the man. And it's so hard to give him your heart because you know you've drifted apart. You're out with the girls it's a Saturday night you drink a few you hide from the light. But you're unhappy the clock's callin you home to a lonely place where you don't want to go. You keep getting bold offers you pretend to decline but here comes a new one the smiling happy kind. The bar room is full the action is quick you can't rush home your mind's on a trip. He's straight up and young he's treating you right now you want to stay it's an early night. You hear him say things that you love to hear you heard them before for so many years. You're wrapped in the music you dance and you touch the perfect young stranger he wants you so much. He fills the spaces where your lonliness reels you're lost again wishing he was all you could feel. You know that it's wrong but you want him no less you fill his lips with your best caress. The night's moving on and passion and youth has got your heart pumping you feel something new. You've got vacant shelter your own empty nest your world is sleeping and you're wanting no rest. How could you guess it you've still got a soul truth gets displaced you're not feeling so old. On with tommorrow you're on your own time he'll still come home and pay you no mind. You're keeping your secrets cause you're tired too you unlock the back door the long night's through. And it's so hard to give him your heart because you know that you've drifted apart. |

Yeah it's true Serenity...the blues never leaves me......been with me forever...just like luggage...as John Lee says the blues will heal ya. I'll have to get you to do the sax solo, I'm a guitarist. Thank you Gossamerwings I'm glad you can hear the blues wailing. This was never written as a song it just comes out of me that way. Thanks for the comment Tony and yes, men can be pigs sometimes. Thank you Maureen I'm glad I touched some deep feelings there, it gets them out. Thank you Kit it's reality....all the guys out there better be taking care of their lady love....all are human..thanks again. |
