Langhorne Slim - On the Attack lyrics

It's taken so long So long to be To measure the man I hoped I would be I take a step forward I take two steps back I can't help but be bored Unless I'm on the attack And attacking's alright We were up on the hill Where the blueberries grow With time to k** I started to fall And it got hard to breathe And it got hard to relax It's hard to face yourself When you're still busy looking back And attacking's alright My love, please understand My love, please understand We're alone in this world Doing all we can To find somebody To love and to hold With a good, warm heart 'Cause it's getting cold Honey please Try and understand It's time To love your man I met a blonde girl She took me into her bed I wanted her body She wanted me dead On a cool summer evening I awoke from a dream Scared of something that was Inside of me My love, please understand Jessie my love, please understand We're alone in this world Every woman, every man Trying to find somebody To love and to hold With a good warm heart 'Cause it's getting cold Honey please Try and understand It's time To love your man
