I took a course in hallelujah I went to night school for the blues I took some stuff they said would cool ya But nothing seemed to light my fuse But it's all in the past Like a check that's in the mail She was a tall whiskey glass I was an old hound dog

Now we have a lot of love to give I dream of a past that we could have Felt like we made up so entirely Blame it on your curiosity And out into the sun, into the sun But it's not released through all the misery But it's not released all the misery Broken

It's making me sad Can't take just a picture of you It's making me mad That I can't get past You call me, oh, you call me all the time You tell me, oh baby, yeah, you're mine I like you, baby draw me all these smiles I like you, but it's just so, so many

Now we have a lot of love to give I dream of a past that we could have Felt like we made up so entirely But it's not released through all the misery And out into the sun, into the sun But it's not released all the misery Broken hearts made of stone, Did

Make it a hurricane before I go insane It's only half past twelve, but I don't care And pour me somethin' tall and strong It's five o'clock somewhere The sun is hot and that ol' clock is movin' slow and so am I Workday passes like molasses in wintertime

I felt my love for you this time Out of sight, I'm feeling so alive You didn't feel anything at all After all, makes me feeling small If they saw us to share, it's cool Something we need to carry on But that is made up past the moon Fit in the home for
