And baby it said too much It didn't say enough 'Cause I'm waking up alone Missing that midnight kiss I can't promise you forever All I know is I still want you to come over And I'm stone cold sober I let the whiskey talk I got the feeling now

The dog days are over The dog days are done 'Cause here they come Can you hear the horses Run for your children for your sisters and brothers Can't carry it with you if you want to survive Happiness, hit her like a train on a track Coming towards her,

I got one foot on the path I got one foot in your doorway You say, "Come over baby Come talk to me" Then you drive me so crazy I can't hardly see If this keeps goin' on I might just leave and not come back I got on foot in your doorway Well you beg me to

Why don't you come over 'bout a quarter to nine Bring all of your fam'ly and I will bring mine If I should bring my brothers, and you bring the others Then I can sing a song like Jeru, just for you Just for all the lovely people that you see in the road

And baby it said too much It didn't say enough 'Cause I'm waking up alone Missing that midnight kiss I can't promise you forever All I know is I still want you to come over And I'm stone cold sober I let the whiskey talk I got the feeling now

I was lonely But after all you told me I'd be okay 'Cause friends are worth a whole lot more than money Can hold on and believe I hope that everyone who's felt like me You got me back on my feet again You said that lovers come and they go You said that

I won't stop breathing I can't believe what I've become Your world is falling at your feet Watch yourself I'm taking over The cracks in the pavement don't break my stride I step lightly Just 'cause you're breathing Don't mean you're alive

And so it goes, and so it goes And you can have this heart to break And you're the only one who knows In every heart there is a room A sanctuary safe and strong To heal the wounds from lovers past Until a new one comes along I spoke to you in cautious

You could come over I know you're shy You can be shy with me I just wanna teach you You know I need you And I'm not quite sober I know you're shy, baby You can be shy You can be shy, with me

It's just the beginnin' You can put me through loads of trouble But in anyway I can walk on fire, it ain't stoppin' me It's just showin' me the way Come thunder, lightning all over me I'd still be on my way It's just the beginnin' and not the end No use
