Watching from the corner of the bar Remembering the night I found you at my door You were running away, drenched by the storm I said "Listen to the thunder, tells you what you need to know" The best thing you can give is as good as you get Another day's coming, and I'm not done yet We circled round the sun, and you grew wild and free With the barn owls and the stars keeping company Then you woke from a dream and I was bad luck And she was plucking at my roses, doe-eyed, red-lipped and moon-struck The best thing you can give is as good as you get Another day's coming, and I'm not done yet But I can't help remembering How once you were my own But when you gave your heart to me I should have swapped it out for stone Instead I'm sitting in the corner here in Carter's Bar And I'm watching you pretend to be the things you aren't First you were a lion, then a snake, then a black dog But the truth of you has faded, I don't know you anymore The best thing you can give is as good as you get Another day's coming, and I'm not done yet
