Ben Carroll: Listen To Music

• MP3 play whole song, hi-fi (broadband)

I never could help you
But I had a good time
And my love left no children
No dollars or dimes

My soul ain't so deep
My heart's not precise
But my body's like a lion
It wants to touch every good thing twice

We both make mistakes
But my darlingest girl
How can you not tolerate
A faithless man's world

Could I be washed up
Before I began
I got a cold cup of coffee
I got a bloody kickstand

I can barely believe
When the crooked day breaks
How can I have so many tricks up my sleeve
And still my poor, fool heart aches

We both make mistakes
But my darlingest girl
How can you not tolerate
A faithless man's world

It's not that I'm lonely
It's not the strong drink
It's the pain inside the ordinary
That drives me every time to the brink

So what if I like love
I like to give love too
In this sick, twisted world I wanna make love
Most of all I wanna make love to you

We both make mistakes
But my darlingest girl
How can you not tolerate
A faithless man's world

You can turn wine into water
If that should help to ease your mind
You can change passion into devotion
You can make a wise man blind

But I've got to ask why
When nothing in the world ever stays the same
How you gonna hold a stick in the fire
When we can both be dancing inside the flame

We both make mistakes
But my darlingest girl
How can you not tolerate
A faithless man's world
