Lyric

1I remember finding out about you
2I've lost at love before
3I know when to go out
4First when there's nothing
5Oh darlin', I'm so lonely without you
6Midnight on the water
7Shadows grow so long before my eyes
8At first I was afraid
9What I feel, I can't say
10Standing in line, marking time
11When the truth is found to be lies
12Come out Virginia
13She packed my bags
14Well there's a black man
15Don't want to discuss it, think it's time for a change
16I found a picture of you
17We skipped the light fandango
18I met a gin-soaked barroom queen
19I hold you in my arms as the band plays
20Well I don't know why I came here tonight
21If you're down and confused
22It was early morning yesterday
23Welcome to my life, there's no turning back
24I have a mansion, forget the price
25Well I think it's time to get ready
