Boz Scaggs - Slowly In The West lyrics

There was nobody left Just a burnout nothing had been done It was hard to believe We had started out that morning having fun But with people always running into walls Like they didn't even see them there at all Got so tangled Thanks again for your moonlight generousness Left me strangling Slowly in the west Don't worry mama your sweet daughter Who lived inside this mess Though I tried to protect her Cool her and ease her restlessness Grew so used to the sound of her alarm Didn't mean to do her any harm Got so tangled Please forgive me for my constant uselessness Got me strangled Slowly in the west Let me loose let me hear the sound of someone Through this haze Take me there I don't care anywhere it's all the same So honey don't hold your breath You may never get to feel this way again Who was crying when she left Lying to you now about the pain Our baby can't be gotten back no It was an end to her madness I've been told Got so tangled Please just show me to the ending Forget the rest Got me strangled Slowly in the west
