came to town to see you - catch your show and spend my money
came to buy a front row - but the box was boarded up, honey
how long have you been this way - working nights as a cocktail waitress
how the heck do you drive in this city - how the heck do you stand this winter

it's driving you - driving me - crazy
what do you want me to be - i am you - you are me
did you forget that

growing up in the country - you wanted yourself a piece of red carpet
stepping out a black limousine - i held you hand and we walked together
underneath that willow tree - i could never forget did you remember what you said

it's driving you - driving me - crazy
what do you want me to be - i am you - you are me
did you forget that
i am a forest of trees - falling down - bending over in your soft breeze
we're gonna stake our claim - mark it out - make it real and watch our heart swell

i still dream about you - you still dream now don't you
let me do you a favor - cos i'm a good lookin' man who can save ya
