lyrics

like the desert on a rainy night
I'm coming to life
but I knew better
before I met you

catch my fall in the cool, blue air
try not to care
and I could do that
before I met you

I always try to do what's right
I pray by day
and sin all night
she said baby,
It's alright

the shadows breed fragile men
they scare em to death
they'd follow me home
before I met you

we walked through the city park
I lit a cigar
I want to look like a man
when I'm with you

and I don't always do what's right
I work all day
so I can drink all night
she said baby,
you're doing alright

and I've been told I've got some growin' to do
I always strived to be the wisest fool
seasons change I'm breaking the same old rule
you cannot love what you're prepared to lose
I thought that true,
before I met you
before I met you.
