Down By The Wayside
Way down by the wayside is where I like to lie
I feel I've fallen from favour when I look in your eye
And if you care to look darling, you'll be surprised
I'm in love
Now I may be in love but I have eyes for you
Just about ready to do anything that you wanted me to
And regardless of time and of the space there will always be a place
In my heart for you
My chance is lost
My heart you can keep
I have paid the cost
Of getting in too deep
I have waited too long
For the sake of my pride
Living in the shadows
Down by the wayside
My body is not a guitar yeah I think you can tell
But you played me five times last night yes you played me well
I see you're taking no prisoners you're out of your shell
I can tell
Your kisses on my forehead are the sweetest around
The sheets in which we move in make a beautiful sound
I can barely speak when I'm binded and bound so aroused
From the break of day
My chance is lost
My heart you can keep
I have paid the cost
Of getting in too deep
I have waited too long
For the sake of my pride
Living in the shadows
Down by the wayside
