Bye And Bye

(专辑： Love And Theft - 2001)

By and by, I'm breathing a lover's sigh
While I'm sitting on my watch so I can be on time
I'm singing love's praises with sugar coated rhyme
By and by, on you I'm casting my eye
I'm painting the town, swinging my partner around
Well I know who I can depend on, I know who to trust
I'm watching the boats, I'm studying the dust

I'm painting the town, making my last go-round
While I'm scuffling and I'm shuffling and I'm walking on briars
I'm not even aquainted with my old desires
I'm rolling slow, I'm doing all I know
I'm telling myself I've found true happiness
That I still got a dream that hasn't been repossessed
I'm rolling slow going where the wild roses grow

Well, the future is already a thing of the past
You were my first love and you will be my last
Papa gone mad, Mama she's feeling sad
Well, I'm gonna baptize you in fire so you can sin no more
I wanna establish my rule through civil war
Gonna make you see just how loyal and true a man can be.
