You Am I - 'Til The Clouds Roll Away lyrics

Oh my darling, oh my sweetness
I'm such a damn mess
I could be knocked right out by
The sway of your dress
But my vision's writing cheques that
My chest just can't cash
Yeah, I'm a high plains dreamer
A royal pain in the ass

Oh my sweet sugar dumpling
What do I put you through
As I'm dusting for prints, yeah
On who cursed me blue?
Yeah it's a roadside confession
A cry in the rain well me help me get up
'til the clouds roll away

So gently she sways
As the support band plays
Well me help me get up
'til the clouds roll away
He needs a clean shirt and a payoff
Some place he ain't been
With a thundercrack for loneliness
Shot from a dream
Yeah and I'll kiss you like a fugitive
And dance till you say
Well me help me get up
'til the clouds roll away

So gently she sways
As the support band plays
Well me help me get up
'til the clouds roll away

She turns the corner like
A priest turns the page
Each second's breathless, Watching you play

Oh my baby, oh my sweetheart
My sweet Ruby gal
There's some things you should know
About your old man
He's lost high and drifting
In between the waves
Lift him with the elements
Then drown them again
But, your smile's his redemption
A-coolin' the flames
He's gonna push 'em 'til the clouds roll away

So gently you sway, As the support band plays
Well me help me get up
'til the clouds roll away
