(Verse)
I danced in the desert, in the pourin' rain
Drank with the devil & forgot my name
Woke with somebody when the mornin' came
No one there to shame me for my youth
Cos' I wouldn't be with u
And then I found me a lover who could play the bass
He's kinda quiet, but his body ain't
Spend the days dreamin' & the nights awake
Doin' things we know we shouldn't do
Cos' I wouldn't be with u

(Pre-Chorus)
Says he can't believe he found me
Wraps his arms around me
Yeaheah, eaheaheahyeah

(Chorus)
I can't let him in
You call me up & ask me how I've been
I'll call ur bluff and
Keep on tellin', tellin', tellin' u lies
Keep on tellin', tellin', tellin' u lies
No, I can't let them in
You play me rough, but I won't let u in
So, call my bluff, I'll
Keep on tellin', tellin', tellin' u lies
Keep on tellin' u lies

(Post-Chorus)
Count down to the day they may come true

(Verse 2)
And I fell for a vagabond, a month at tops
Lied & said his bike was in the 'motor shop'
Drove my car once & made the tire pop
Still we had some fun, 'til I came to
Cos' I wouldn't be with u
On the Fourth of July, I met a man 'Pierre'
Lied about his age, but I didn't care
Spoke in broken English but the heart was there
In those eyes of sky & ocean blue
Cos' I wouldn't be with u

(Pre-Chorus)
He says he can't believe he found me
Wraps his arms around me
Yeah-eah, eah-eah-eah-yeah

(Chorus)

(Post-Chorus)
Count down to the day they may come true
I'm countin' dowoooown
I'm still so dooooown
I'll come around
