Jaded Lover

(专辑： Time As We Know It - The Songs Of Jerry Jeff Walker - 2012)

Well, now it won't be but a week or two
'Til you'll be out loving someone new
It must've happened a hundred times before
Well, I can see you been spreading yourself thin too
It's a lonely stage we been going through
Don't get up 'cause I can find my own way to the door

Well, I can see you are an angel
Whose wings just won't unfold
So tune up your harp
And polish your old halo
The only kind of man that you ever wanted
Was one that you knew you'd never hold very long
You're sitting there crying like I'm the first one to go

You may have thirty lovers behind you
Well, I can feel you but I just can't find you
Seems to me you might've found your own self by now
But late at night those lovers' tears come back
Faces in your dreams, fingers in your back
Voices of the memories now for crying out loud

Well, I can see you are an angel
Whose wings just won't unfold
So tune up your harp
And polish your old halo
The only kind of man that you ever wanted
Was one that you knew you'd never hold very long
You're sitting there crying like I'm the first one to go

What a joyous sight to see you in your sleep
I believe I'm a-leaving, it's getting too deep
I seems easy enough for any man to see
Still we'd never agree if we talked all night
Things are getting kinda heavy, I'm travelling light
Goodbye you Jaded Lover, you undercover queen for a day

I can see you are an angel
Whose wings just won't unfold
So tune up your harp
And polish your old halo
The only kind of man that you ever wanted
Was one that you knew you'd never hold very long
You're sitting there crying like I'm the first one to go
Yeah, you keep sitting there crying like I'm the first one to go

Think about it, darling
