I fell in love with a bad, bad man

Ever since I met him I been sad, sad, sad

June faded into blooms of September's moon waned and grooved Your perfume haunted me long after I saw the swing of heaven's gate open in toward me Luxurious in your arms, your smile is the cool sun in the dark Misery rejoices when you're near and fever No sign of sickness keeps me burnin' down in my heart Winter melts, she shys away quite like the silence a dying star makes I'm a jail bird to your music, a criminal in your prayers I watch you in your sleep even when you're not there Picture this: your lips on my lips The mirror has to do for now 'cause you vanished like a cloud Rainbows wept colour all over the streets When you went away maybe one day we'll meet "Oh woman," you're callin' me I haven't slept a wink since 1916 I wasn't born then but sure feels time's been tickin' Shadows parade outside my door I wish we were dancin' across this old floor Car horns honkin' down that dirty street I wish you were yellin' tellin' to wash my feet Lipstick I'd wear for one million years Just to stop your eyes from fallin' them tears...
