Time And Love

(album: The Dirt Road - 1992)

As she drags on a cigarette
You can tell it's been her first pack
A leopard coat and piled high hair
Thick makeup, skin tight slacks
Tonight she's stepping out
She thinks, if only he could see her now

She will leave a trail of turning heads
Smoking bridges and ice cold beds
Avoiding the blame at any cost
She is spinning wheels and throwing stones
Burying hearts and digging up them bones
Making up for time and love that was lost
She's making up for time and love that was lost

She's headed down a one-way road
Where hearts don't touch and ends don't meet
Fired by a danger glow
It's in her eyes and on the street
And tomorrow they will talk about
How tonight she went to town

She will leave a trail of turning heads
Smoking bridges and ice cold beds
Avoiding the blame at any cost
She is spinning wheels and throwing stones
Burying hearts and digging up them bones
Making up for time and love that was lost
She's making up for time and love that was lost

And tomorrow he will think about
How tonight she went to town

She will leave a trail of turning heads
Smoking bridges and ice cold beds
Avoiding the blame at any cost
She is spinning wheels and throwing stones
Burying hearts and digging up them bones
Making up for time and love that was lost
She's making up for time and love that was lost
