DESDEMONA – transcribed by Thomas Pope from the 8.24.02 show at Alltel
Pavilion, Raleigh, N.C.
Rain falls on a sleepy Southern town
The midnight moon is burning brightly
Memories rush in like a river flows along
As you lay sleeping without me
The highway song keeps me rollin’ on
Still I long for you
Desdemona, I will be your only one, oh yeah.
I make my living pouring out my pain,
Trying to make it through another day.
Arms reach for me – on the wind I can feel them,
They’re a thousand miles away.
And eyes remind me of everything that’s beautiful and blue
I won’t be myself ’til I’m with you
Desdemona, I will be your only one, oh yeah
Hold a candle to the darkness, baby
Night time sleeps, but not for long
A heart is pounding like the ocean
The soul’s empty as the sky,
I know someday I’ll be coming home
Time goes by like the twinkling of an eye
Still I burn for you.
Desdemona, I will be your only one, oh yeah
I just want to be the only one
I just want to be the only one
Your only one.
