Lyrics to Wild West Love Song
Lack of Lovers at an early age
Seemed to fill me up with rage
With jealousy & envy babe
I seem to hate you for the love you made
A crumpled bumper, some scattered drugs
12 French kisses & a shotgun slug
Lookin' back it's been hard to judge
If my innocence was not a little too much
Steppin' off the Salt Lake bus
I bumped in to the dream of us
But she was such a frenzied fuss
I only followed her home out of pity & lust
But the air was blue & the sky was clean
Out where the western streems did seem
To shine like it was all a dream
Unlike New York where I have been
I look away
I look away
Now she said she come from by the lake
And her eyes were blue & her thoughts had weight
Right there she coulda set me straight
And say I come along just a little too late
But the drinks they came & the drinks they went
She rode with me where the road was bent
By the inn of 8's the night we spent
Talkin' away inside an iron tent
Now by the time the sky went gun bolt blue
I believed I was in love with you
But it was much more than I could do
To look at you
Look at you (Well look atcha!)
I look away
I look away
Lack of lovers at an early age
Seemed to fill me up with rage
With jealousy & envy babe
I seemed to hate you for the love you made
Now 'til I kissed you in the Wasatch dawn
'til I held your little hand
I was a tumble weed, a cowboy song
I was moving on, moving on
Now here we are and lookin' back
Movin', standin' still in fact
1,00 more miles down the tracks
We put the western sunset at our backs
& it's still you my salty saint
It's you who's everything I ain't
You give me balance when I'm feelin faint
I write your name on my heart in forever paint
Seemed to fill me up with rage
With jealousy & envy babe
I seem to hate you for the love you made
A crumpled bumper, some scattered drugs
12 French kisses & a shotgun slug
Lookin' back it's been hard to judge
If my innocence was not a little too much
Steppin' off the Salt Lake bus
I bumped in to the dream of us
But she was such a frenzied fuss
I only followed her home out of pity & lust
But the air was blue & the sky was clean
Out where the western streems did seem
To shine like it was all a dream
Unlike New York where I have been
I look away
I look away
Now she said she come from by the lake
And her eyes were blue & her thoughts had weight
Right there she coulda set me straight
And say I come along just a little too late
But the drinks they came & the drinks they went
She rode with me where the road was bent
By the inn of 8's the night we spent
Talkin' away inside an iron tent
Now by the time the sky went gun bolt blue
I believed I was in love with you
But it was much more than I could do
To look at you
Look at you (Well look atcha!)
I look away
I look away
Lack of lovers at an early age
Seemed to fill me up with rage
With jealousy & envy babe
I seemed to hate you for the love you made
Now 'til I kissed you in the Wasatch dawn
'til I held your little hand

It's you who's everything I ain't
You give me balance when I'm feelin faint
I write your name on my heart in forever paint
