Intro:
My darlin I hope you are rested
For tonight I plan to keep you
In my arms till far past dawn
If this town has your grace
But for a short while
Can we damn up all the damage
And enjoy the time we ve got
G----Em----C--D----G
Cassettes of country
Played our conversation
Broken hopes
and hearts conditioned
By the lives once ours then lost
It s so easy to examine
From the outside
But while living
Sometimes breathing
Is a task beyond our means
I have felt the lightning hit the ground
While counting out the days
It s the hope
that watching every hour
Could slow departures haste
And I know you didn t need the heartache
And I was happy in the dark
But one cannot control the heart
To stop and start
G----Em----C--D----G
My darlin I hope you are rested
For tonight I plan to keep you
In my arms till far past dawn
If this town has your grace
But for a short while
Can we damn up all the damage
And enjoy the time we ve got
