Old Blacktop

Too many nights been sitting alone
And missing you kills me more than you'll know
The hardest thing is to keep from my mind
Is quietly loving you night after night

And it's so hard to see
When you're gone from me

The starless nights run deep to my soul
Your romance and roses all day tired me so
And drowning your eyes with whisky and wine
And walking on home with this phone in my pride

And it's so hard to see
When you're gone from me

So kiss me sweetness and take away my pain
I've far too many bruises I've hidden in shame
So give me your bed to rest my weary head
And let me lie with you tonight

And it's so hard to see
When you're gone from me

So kiss me sweetness and take away my pain
I've far too many bruises I've hidden in shame
So give me your bed to rest my weary head
And let me lie with you tonight

And it's so hard to leave
When you're close to me

And, and it's so hard to leave
When you're close to me
