10.Tomorrow Night In Baltimore

Her head rolls back and forth
Against the billows of her long black shiny hair
As she contemplates the ecstasy
Of some other love that now she wished was there

If she could only realise that the love i have could beckon her
command
Instead of laughing endlessly and pushing back advances with her
hands

Every night i see her leaves a nightmare of illusions when she's
gone
And it leaves a longing feeling in a man with a pain that
lingers on

The gaudy goodbye can't replace the girlish giggle of her sweet
hello
But tonight i've made my crumbled mind up that i'll never ever
let her go

Too many nights i've watched her tease
By shifting all her weight from hip to hip
And with her hands brush back the falling strands
That cover up her satin lips

She struts upon the stage and her fallen victims are calling out
for more
But she leaves them stranded helplessly and exits to her
dressing room door

Tonight i'm gonna take her, i've infiltrated past the guarded
door
But she just hurries by me carrying all those scanty costumes
that she wore

And she asks a sawed off cigar smoking cat if he would open up
the door
Then she told him to load the baggage
Because they open tomorrow night in baltimore

God' if i have to crawl, i'm gonna be there tomorrow night in
baltimore
