I´m walkin´ through the summer nights Jukebox playing low Yesterday everything was goin´ too fast Today it´s moving too slow.
I got no place left to turn I got nothing left to burn Don´t know if I saw you If I would kiss you or kill you It probably wouldn´t matter to you anyhow You left me standin´ in the doorway cryin´ I got nothing to go back to now.
Maybe they´ll get me, and maybe they won´t But not tonight and it won´t be here There are things that I could say but I don´t I know the mercy of God must be near.
I´ve been riding the midnight train I´ve got ice water in my veins.
I would be crazy if I took you back It would go up against any rule
You left me standin´ in the doorway cryin´ Sufferin´ like a fool.
When the last rays of daylight go down Buddy, you´re old no more I can hear church bells ringin´ in the yard I wonder who they´re ringin´ for?
Oh, I know I can´t win But my heart, it just won´t give in.
I see nothin´ to be gained by any explanation There are no words that need to be said You left me standin´ in the doorway cryin´ Blues wrapped around my head.
