Darktown

Sun is low now in the skysoon the cold will start to biteand I'm kicking some oldempty candown a barren street yahstep into a dark saloonpeer across the smoke filled roomI can feel her a mile awayshe smiles and beckons meNow we're dancing throught the mistface to face I taste her breathour gaze locks into a hazy trance I start to quivernow she comes to comfort me I tell her I'm too blind to seea warm bed and a fresh breath of air and you'll feel betterI know the feeling that you gettoo bad it's only for a momentlost in the shadows of the nightshe turned and took my hand saidstay by my side, slip between the lightmirror my image we'll be alrightThe key that opens up a thousand doors of mysteryunlocks a basement full of fearsstart to unravel in it you might as well be blindshe saw my fright and closed her eyesDon't fall in love it's a crazy nightmareshe looked at me and she winked an eyeit's too soon to say good-bye to this darktowncould use a fortune of imaginationrefuse to look but I cannot denygotta make it out tonight of this darktownSorry to leave you in this crazy nightmareshe looked at and she winked and eyethat's too bad so goodbye to your darktowncould use a fortune of imaginationI turned to look but I closed my eyesand I won't turn back tonight to this darktown
