Lyrics
Way out here, in the heart of desire
Deep inside the worst part, of this all-consuming fire
I can see the Joker, I hear the town crier
The blind chain smoker, tangled in barbed-wire
But the lamp's burned-out in your room
And your reflection's lit by the crescent moon
Then ya' drew the curtain not a minute too soon
Save me, Save me, Save me
Think I'm gonna die
The misty evening after, my restless heart lay broken
I faintly heard a voice, since then I have been hopin'
I can see the joker, I hear the town crier
The blind chain smoker, tangled in barbed-wire
If the lamp's not on your window sill
I'll ride into the night , and over the hill
And burn all my bridges, and flush all my pills
Save me, Save me, Save me
Think I'm gonna die
Soon I'll find a place, then I'll feel alright
Where the campfire's warm, and the flame's eternally bright
I won't see the joker, or the silent town crier
An occasional smoker, on top of the pile
And if the candlelite's snuffed on your window sill
I'll have to take my chances on another girl
Sugar once I'm gone your world will crumble on down
Save me, Save me, Save me
Think I'm gonna die
