Writin' Lines

(A.Waters)

I tell you baby it's a mystery to me
I turn my hand to patience with these verrses to thee
But aches and the pain and the rain might be some kind of clue
And I'd trek fifty flamin' miles writin' lines to you

And in the morning when the sun goes down
I take the lonely road to lonesome town
Where the bees and the birds and the trees are the wrong shade of blue
And I'd trek fifty flamin' miles writin' lines to you

Well I called you from Sarina, played the concertina
Poured my heart all over your shoe
And in the desperate evenin' I dedicate your leavin'
To games of spin the bottle and the two dollar view

And in the morning when the sun goes down
I turn your photograph way down
Cause I know that you know that I know that I do too
And I'd trek fifty flamin' miles writin' lines to you

And every evening when the moon is black
I set my compass to the section of track
Where the roses, thistles, wolves and the whistles wait for you
And I'd trek fifty flamin' miles writin' lines to you
