Don't Desert Me

I have passed my time expecting But never have I swayed No my dogs have not been barking And in my bed I've laid It was a time without regret Crystal vision in my head Back before I couldn't get by Without you Mm, mm, mm Don't desert me Then I saw you in the poolhall In the spotlight of the fool I saw you in the card game And I could not keep my cool I saw you in the place of night And when I turned to chase the light We were face to face yes you Disturbed me Mm, mm, mm Don't desert me Now I am cast, my eyes are rolled To seven by your graceful hold Did I hear correctly, I was told There wasn't any skill Now I don't want to leave you I want to stay here on the ice I don't want to leave you Although you are not very nice So won't you send your guards away And tell me that I have to stay And that you like the way I let you Work me Mm, mm, mm Don't desert me You leave me in your waiting room Underfed and overgroomed But I will have a brand new tune for you When you pick me up again You get out of the clinic You drank not too your health And now you share your bottle with me From the bottom of your shelf But understand me when I sing And stoop to kiss your plastic ring There's something sweet about the sting Now ain't there Mm, mm, mm Don't desert me
