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

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
