Shawn Colvin - Another Long One lyrics

S. Colvin If losing sleep were any indication Of the loving that I've missed I would wrap myself around you But how likely can that be when I feel like this And if life were not unfortunate And reason blew like summer through the trees I would stop to let you catch me But I think that you would find me on my knees And it's gonna be another long one tonight It's just me and my well-intentioned spite I said someone did this to me But no one did, there's no injustices I just can't afford to be right no more I bought myself another bad dream tonight With these little boys in my head sleeping tight It's gonna be another long one tonight There is comfort in a memory And in roses just before you cut them down There is danger in most everything That's all the better when it's not around And the last time I had the sense to notice You were right here being kind But if I think that you are with me Then I know that you can always change your mind And it's gonna be another long one tonight It's just me and my well-intentioned spite I said someone did this to me But no one did, there's no injustices I just can't afford to be right no more I bought myself another bad dream tonight With these little boys in my head sleeping tight It's gonna be another long one tonight
