Blue Rodeo - Shed My Skin lyrics

You've got troubles on your mind
Keeps you away from me
There's no sense in denying
And I've cursed myself for the longest time
And now I find I just don't mind

Leave your coat beside the door
Come and lay here on this
Blanket on the floor
And we'll throw our candles
In the flames tonight
Set it right, try to set it right

When all our tears coming down are gone
And I shed my skin before this evening's done
If we never get the chance
To come back here again
I'll understand, you know I'll understand
You know I'll understand

All the spirit's of the night
Watch us sleeping here beside the firelight
And I'll hold my tongue
'til this moment's gone
Kiss the dawn, stay to kiss the dawn

When all our tears coming down are gone
And I shed my skin before this evening's done
If we never get the chance
To come back here again
I'll understand, you know I'll understand
You know I'll understand
