Lyric Ashes By Now

(Rodney Crowell)

This morning is Monday where are you now
Teasin my memory teaching me how to lay low
When I don t want to
Well love is elusive this I know now
It s making me crazy leaving me out
In the open when I don t want to

The moments of pleasures Never do last
Are gone like a suitcase full of your past
Long gone and in a hurry

Baby, I can t go through this again
I don t need to go down more then I ve already been
Just like a wild fire you re running all over town
As much as you burn me baby I should be ashes by now

The second street beggars alone in their life
Drunk on a sidewalk to hide from the night
Like I am They re just like I am

Baby, I can t go through this again
I don t need to go down more then I ve already been
Just like a wild fire you re running all over town
As much as you burn me baby I should be ashes by now

Just like a wild fire You re running all over town
As much as you burn me, baby I should be ashes by now
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah I should be ashes by now
