Lonely every time a canteen of lights came up
On the Indian Casino Queen Cus hed loved her from the time shed been the
waitress at the Mexican place where hed left his keys
Shed been there smilen at the lost and found
/ ( )
Then he took her to see three dog night they were playin at the fairgrounds
Holdin hands singin Joy to the World
She was way too young
But he did not care
He was alright with cashin in
A few fine moments before his broken heart kicked in
Riff
Well he
died a little bit each time the night came in
And the stars fell over Michigan Cus hed loved her at the ball when he saw her
dancing to I Could Never Take the Place of Your Man
Then hed come over to his usual spot
( )
Soon they were makin out at three AM in the empty parking lot
They lay together under the burnt out stars
She never loved him back
It wasnt even close
But he was fine with just pretend
that it was never gonna end
and it was worth it just to know
A little warmth before the snow
