"Gloria" lyrics

Once in a while
I grab my coat and I drive into town
Where I hope I'll see you walking around
Just like I used to
These days burn fast
Faster than my cigarettes can turn into ash
So I just dream about the time I saw you last
And all the other times, too

And Gloria, I've tried
All of their prescriptions
But nothing makes these long nights end
There ain't a single goddamn thing
That I wouldn't give
To see you at my door again

Lately all I've seen is rain
And your face inside a hundred picture frames
You haven't missed much here, it all stays the same
But I guess I like it that way
So if I ever call your name
Oh love of mine, it's just because I like the way it rings
And for you I'll wait forever in the wings
Even when the light is gone away

And Gloria, I've tried
All of their prescriptions
But nothing makes these long nights end
There ain't a single goddamn thing
That I wouldn't give
To see you at my door again

Oh, and Gloria, I've tried
All of their prescriptions
But nothing makes these long nights end
There ain't a single goddamn thing
That I wouldn't give
To see you at my door again
