She told me only artificial things last forever
But all of the realest feelings have the pain
The candles burning at both ends this time
We're burning that gasoline down
The long road to ruin
But babe were gonna make it through somehow
And if i can
Ill be your man to help you through
My baby's got a real good job
Working for the city
She still goes to the bar shell play piano for you
The bar rats are so invited when you sit down
They say play my favorite song
Well its a long road to ruin
But babe were gonna make it through somehow
And if i can
Ill be your man to help you through
Well its a long road to ruin
But babe were gonna make it through somehow
And if i can
Ill be your man to help you through
She told me only artificial things last forever
But all of the realest feelings have the pain
