Sitting out in warm winds, flecks of sun painted on sea
You smiled and looked down when I told you ''It ain’t bad to be me''
Give me moonlight, and a smile from you that I can barely believe
Baby those plans are grand but you don’t mean the same
When they ask you who you’re living for and you’ll drop my name
And I found a new courage that kills cowards I’ve been holding in
And it took us back to times, when real men were real men
Let me tell you, no one ever got my soul right like she could
Amongst artists in heartlessness, dealing in darknesses
I know, I know
One time nobody ever got my soul right like she could
Now I’m close to what I’m needing
Now I’m close to what I’m needing
One by one we made it up over that hill
One by one they picked us off, laughing still
Let me know, let me know when I’ve got room to run
Let me know, let me know when that fool is cleaning his gun and I’ll-
Let me tell you, no one ever got my soul right like she could
Amongst artists in heartlessness, dealing in darknesses
I know I know
One time nobody ever got my soul right like she could
Now I’m close to what I’m needing
I hold on to your heart
And I keep on coming round, coming round this part
And I’ll only grow lonely, my darling, when the silence starts
Let me tell you, no one ever got my soul right like she could
Amongst artists in heartlessness, dealing in darknesses
I know I know
One time nobody ever got my soul right like she could
Now I’m close to what I’m needing
