You're a cool little one My dark southern breeze Sweeps through my fingers And it amazes me Dixie shadowland Your envy shelters me Lay down your burden
I gotta quit this habit It's like some drug for you You've been my sweet sweet addict I've been your little white boy blue You've got the same obsession
you come out of the ground After forty eight hours Going down down down down down Going down in Durban deep Going down down down down down There's no mercy in my sleep
When the shades are drawn And the light of the moon is banned And the stars up above Walk the heavens hand in hand There's a shady place At the end of
Rock me now in your gentle healing hands I never knew love like poison That burned like a fire All I ever wanted was a reason To drown in your eyes I never knew sleep
Well she swept through the church Like a sweet Sunday prayer While the choir sang Son of Heaven And the groom just walked on air I was killing time with
sleeping with the past Don't go praying he'll come back Take a deep breath and deny You could love a man like that Don't go sleeping with the past Don't go waking with
just get ugly When our love gets all talked out Your goodnight kiss ain't hungry Our touches don't connect We're just a couple of kids with a broken toy
others Hurt me with the night Whisper like cold winds close to the bone Save heaven for lovers, leave me alone With your whispers, whispers, whispering whispers With
It's a human sign When things go wrong When the scent of her lingers And temptation's strong Into the boundary Of each married man Sweet deceit comes
I gotta quit this habit It's like some drug for you You've been my sweet, sweet addict I've been your little white boy blue You've got the same obsession
You're a cool little one My dark southern breeze Sweeps through my fingers And it amazes me Dixie shadow land Your envy shelters me Lay down your burden
When the shades are drawn And the light of the moon is banned And the stars up above Walk the heavens, hand in hand There's a shady place At the end
me now in your gentle healin' hands I never knew love like poison That burned like a fire All I ever wanted was a reason To drown in your eyes I never knew sleep
I never knew her name Oh, the congregation gathered But in darkness I remained In love with the bride of a handsome man (Ooo) I'm in love with the bride
fool Don't go sleepin' with the past Don't go prayin' he'll come back Take a deep breath and deny You could love a man like that Don't go sleeping with the past
with the night Whisper like cold winds close to the bone Save heaven for lovers, leave me alone With your whisper Whisper, whisperin' whispers With your whisper With
out of the ground After forty eight hours Going down down down down down Going down in Durban deep Going down down down down down There's no mercy in my sleep
