"Ever The Dark" lyrics
"Ever The Dark"
Ever the dark comes calling ever the ground gone shake
Ever it don't stop rainin' ever the damn gone break
Now and then we let a little light in, then back again, drawing the blinds
Ever the dark come calling, ever the sun don't shine
I'm tired of shooting myself in the foot every shotgun blast
Renders my best-laid plans kaput, fly's my flag half mast
Even when I've been keeping mind right, setting my sights on whoa
Ever the dark come calling, ever the light lay low
Ever the dark comes calling ever you can't say when
Ever the sun come shinin' ever the roof caves in
Even when I'm gone say it again, we got trouble like it never been known
Ever the dark comes calling, ever the light stay gone
I'm gonna change my number I'm gonna change my friends
Take myself to meetings, let it all sink in
I tried faking it, thinking I was making it and shakin' it a time or two
Shame, shame been fanning that flame, been landing that blame on you
Hey, hey baby, what do you say if we ever get back gone leave it that way
Ever the dark comes calling, ever the light say no
Ever the moon say don't blame me, ever the stars don't show
I heard talkin' bout a line worth walkin' been balkin ever since day one
Ever the dark comes calling, ever the light gone run

Lee Roy Parnell - "On The Road" There's a sad, young wife
Never had a life
Her mother said she'd married young
And her husband's a fool
Never listened to
All the things she's never done
So she packs up that ol' Ford Fairlane
She's...

Like the ashes of her cigarette
He got scattered thrown on the breeze
As he tried to forget
He lost all his heat
And his heart never will be the same
He got lighter than air

And just like they say, nothing good ever lasts

But hold on to your lover 'cause your heart's bound to die
Go on now and say goodbye...

Missin' you a baby
