Lyrics

0:11Cowboys on the road tonight
0:14Crying in their sleep
0:16If I was a hungry man with a gun in my hand
0:19And some promises to keep
0:22Who wanted to change the world
0:24What's as easy as murder
0:27It's all headlights and vapour trails
0:30And Circle K killers
0:31And I know I could look at anyone but you now
0:39I could fall under the eyes of anyone
0:42But you now now now now
0:45So come on come on come on
0:47Oh come on through now
0:50Come on come on come on
0:53Oh come on through now
0:56This is a list of what I should have been
0:59But I'm not
1:00This is a list of the things that I should have seen
1:04But I'm not seeing
1:07The look in your eyes
1:09As his fingertips slid down your neck
1:11And made you shiver
1:13I'm just turning away from where I should have been
1:16Because I am not anything
1:22Oh anything oh
1:30The President's in bed tonight
1:32But he can't get to sleep
1:35'Cause all the cowboys on the radio are killers
1:40And I believe she loves you
1:42'Cause you never make her feel like anything
1:46She said "I wouldn't feel a thing
1:49But I can feel I can feel "
1:50And I know I could look at anyone but you now
1:57I could fall under the arms of anyone
2:00But you now now now now
2:03So come on come on come on
2:05Oh come on through now
2:06Come on come on come on
2:11Oh come on through now
2:14This is a list of what I should have been
2:17But I'm not
2:19This is a list of the things that I should have seen
2:22But I am not seeing
2:24The look in your eyes
2:26As his fingers are unzipping your dress
2:29And it makes you shiver
2:30I'm just turning away from what I shouldn't see
2:33Because I am not anything
2:36Oh anything no
2:44Everyone's in bed tonight
3:01But nobody can sleep
3:04'Cause all the satellites are watching through our windows
3:09She says she doesn't love me like like she's acting
3:12But it's as if she isn't talking
3:15'Cause Mr Lincoln's head is bleeding
3:18On the front row while she's speaking
3:20I said "come on all you cowboys
3:23All you blue-eyed baby boys
3:26Oh come on all you dashing gentlemen of summer
3:31I'll wait for you where Saturday's a memory
3:35And Sunday comes to gather me
3:38Into the arms of God who welcome me
3:40Because I believe oh I believe
3:43And I know I could look at anyone but you now
3:49I could fall under the eyes of anyone
3:52But you now now now now
3:55So come on come on come on
3:57Oh come on through now
4:00Come on come on come on
4:02Oh come on through now
4:06This is a list of what I should have been
4:09But I'm not
4:11This is a list of the things that I should have seen
4:14But I'm not seeing you look at me
4:22So please won't you look at me
4:26'Cause I'm not seeing you look at me
4:30Oh oh I I will make you look at me
4:36Or I am not anything
4:43Oh anything
4:48No no no no
Cowboys on the road tonight
Crying in their sleep
If I was a hungry man with a gun in my hand
And some promises to keep
Who wanted to change the world
What's as easy as murder
It's all headlights and vapour trails
And Circle K killers
And I know I could look at anyone but you now
I could fall under the eyes of anyone
But you now  now  now  now
So come on  come on  come on
Oh  come on through now
Come on  come on  come on
Oh  come on through now
This is a list of what I should have been
But I'm not
This is a list of the things that I should have seen
But I'm not seeing
The look in your eyes
As his fingertips slid down your neck
And made you shiver
I'm just turning away from where I should have been
Because I am not anything
Oh  anything  oh
The President's in bed tonight
But he can't get to sleep
'Cause all the cowboys on the radio are killers
And I believe she loves you
'Cause you never make her feel like anything
She said  "I wouldn't feel a thing
But I can feel  I can feel   "
And I know I could look at anyone but you now
I could fall under the arms of anyone
But you now  now  now  now
So come on  come on  come on
Oh  come on through now
Come on  come on  come on
Oh  come on through now
This is a list of what I should have been
But I'm not
This is a list of the things that I should have seen
But I am not seeing
The look in your eyes
As his fingers are unzipping your dress
And it makes you shiver
I'm just turning away from what I shouldn't see
Because I am not anything
Oh  anything  no
Everyone's in bed tonight
But nobody can sleep
'Cause all the satellites are watching through our windows
She says she doesn't love me  like  like she's acting
But it's as if she isn't talking
'Cause Mr  Lincoln's head is bleeding
On the front row while she's speaking
I said  "come on all you cowboys
All you blue-eyed baby boys
Oh come on all you dashing gentlemen of summer
I'll wait for you where Saturday's a memory
And Sunday comes to gather me
Into the arms of God who welcome me
Because I believe  oh I believe
And I know I could look at anyone but you now
I could fall under the eyes of anyone
But you now  now  now  now
So come on  come on  come on
Oh  come on through now
Come on  come on  come on
Oh  come on through now
This is a list of what I should have been
But I'm not
This is a list of the things that I should have seen
But I'm not seeing you look at me
So please  won't you look at me
'Cause I'm not seeing you look at me
Oh  oh  I  I will make you look at me
Or I am not anything
Oh  anything
No no no no
