Wayside

Romeos and Casanovas
Lotharios with eyes that smolder
They all left you with nothing but a cloud of smoke
Now here I stand just a simple man
With a ten buck supermarket bouquet in my hand
I see you laughing but honey this ain’t no joke

[Chorus]
I wanna walk all the way with you
I wanna prove my love is true
All the others who tried fell by the wayside
I wanna walk all the way
Walk all the way with you

With bruised hearts and spooked horses
It’s best to tread lightly as a matter of course
‘Lest they slip the reins, jump the fences and bolt for the hills
I’m nothing if not persistent, I’m stubborn but I’m kind
And you can’t tell me nothing once I’ve made up my mind
So if you run I’m gonna chase you, honey you know I will, you know I will

[Chorus]

From the chemical rush of a brand new love
Straight through the valley of the shadow with nothing but a rind of moon above
‘Til mankind’s common kingdoms have all crumbled back to dust
‘Til ashes or even less is all that’s left of us

[Chorus]
