Oh I heard a rooster crow
I think I better go
Never been out this late before
Please don't think I'm a bore
But will I see you anymore

Say have you got a comb that I can use
I'm sure I look like real bad news
Like I really been abused
Don't get me wrong when I ask before
If I'll see you anymore

I don't know if I should laugh or cry
Do you want to kiss me goodbye?

They say that every thing you do
Turns out all wrong
That you're bound to lose
And you love me too much
Take me along
[Chorus:]
Ah baby don't ever try to close a rose
After it blooms to the tuned
Of a spring time day
It won't work any way
'Cos once it knows the sun it grows
And keeps on growing
Knowing it must say goodbye
To the field and the sky
So don't you worry about me

You never give yourself completely
It's just that you've been hurt before
You're so afraid to let me love you
You never leave an open door
Don't judge me by some other lover
Who broke your heart and walked away
Come let's be fair with one another
My world is yours I swear it
Say the word and we can share it
[Chorus:]
Don't hide your love
(Don't hide your love)
Not if you care for me

A funny face kid
From down the street
Always very close at hand
He was just a cowboy
I was Lady Grand
But I don't think
I would have shoot him down
If I knew then
What I know now
High school days and puppy love
Learning what it's all about
He was kind of awkward
I was filling out
I don't think
I would have played around
If I knew then
What I know now
Too many years
Too many tears

Well I've never been to Spain
But I kind of like the music
Say the ladies are insane there
And they sure know how to use it
They don't abuse it
Never gonna lose it
I can't refuse it
Well I've never been to England
But I kind of like the Beatles
Well I headed for Las Vegas
Only made it out to Needles
Can you feel it
Must be real
It feels so good
It feels so good
Well I never been to Heaven

If you're gonna let me down
Let me down easy
So I won't be too hurt after you're gone
And if you're gonna let me down
Ah set me down easy
From that special cloud you put me on
Let me down easy, let me down slow
And if you're gonna leave me
Ah honey give me a memory
To soften up the fall
And if you're gonna let me down
Ah let me down easy
Ah baby please don't let me down at all

I've been so many places
In my life and time
Sung a lot of songs
I've made some bad rhyme
I got out my life in stages
With ten thousand people watching
But we're alone now
I'm singing this song
Singing this song for you
I know your image of me
Is what I hope to be
I've treated you unkindly
But darling can't you see
There's no one more important to me
Darling can you please see through me

Here it is again Monday morning
And I really got the blues
But it don't much matter
I got no need to smile
And I don't think I will for quit awhile
[Chorus:]
So it might as well stay Monday from now on
Cause it seems that the only one I ever love is gone
And it just might as well stay Monday from now on
Go away mister sun I can't use you
Brighten someone else's life

Every now and then
I begin again
I push the rock up the mountain
Though I'm learning slow
Now I think I know
How to step aside
When the rock begins to slide
[Chorus:]
Down, down, down
To the bottom of the valley
Down, down, down
But I know it won't crush me anymore
Every now and then
I think I see a friend
I push the rock up the mountain
Ah, getting close to what I never knew
I just step aside

Look at us
The picture of happiness
Not so long ago
Ah not so very long ago
The pride of all our friends
The perfect couple were we
Is this how it will end?
Just a sad, sad story
[Chorus:]
Living in a house divided
With a love that's so one sided
There's no chance at all
The walls have got to fall
Living in a house divided
With a love that's so one sided
There's no chance at all
