"Ashes By Now" lyrics
"Ashes By Now"
This morning is Monday, where are you now?
Teasin' my memory, teaching me how
To lay low when I don't want to
Your love is elusive this I know now
It's making me crazy leaving me out
In the open when I don't want to
I don't know why you do that to me
The moments of pleasures never do last
Are gone like a suitcase full of your past
Long gone, and in a hurry
Baby, I can't go through this again
I don't need to go down
More then I've already been
Just like a wild fire
You're running all over town
As much as you burn me, baby
I should be ashes by now
The second street beggars alone in their life
Drunk on a sidewalk to hide from the night
Like I am they're just like I am
Baby, I can't go through this again
I don't need to go down
More then I've already been
Just like a wild fire
You're running all over town
As much as you burn me, baby
I should be ashes by now
Just like a wild fire
You're running all over town
And as much as you burn me, baby
I should be ashes by now
Should be ashes by now

Shelby Lynne - "I'll Lie Myself To Sleep" I tell myself his mem'ry doesn't hold me
But there's a picture of the man I say I'm over
By my bed, face down my bed
I'm so glad that broken heart's behind me
And I no longer let his love confine...
Jackson Browne - "Shaky Town" I've witnessed those one night stands
Must have played in a thousand bands
But I'm just here tonight, tomorrow I'll be gone
Seen folks show their blacker sides
Seen them die just for foolish pride...

Little Feat - "All That You Dream" I've been down, but not like this before
Can't be 'round this kind of show no more
