I could never have enough, my voids were relentless
I took a drink and a smoke and a barroom temptress
We flew around the world, we both wore our best dress
I wore a bolo tie, she wore a turquoise necklace
She loves to talk and I love to listen
In between the jokes we were both hoping and wishing
For things to always be the way that they were
Unfolding into each other, just watching the fire burn
We rolled those left-handed cigarettes and we melted into a cocoon
It felt just like the afterlife in our living room
They said, "Loving that girl is bad
News, she'll run you half to death"
But I don't believe that stuff, no matter what the whole town says
'Cause I love to talk and she loves to listen
In between the jokes we were both hoping and wishing
For things to always be the way that they were
Unfolding into each other, just watching the fire burn
She loves to talk and I love to listen
In between the jokes we were both hoping and wishing
For things to always be the way that they were
Unfolding into each other, just watching the fire burn
