Tumbleweed

Well I turn away so I can't see
The look in your eyes when you make love to me
Well, you say you'll be back in the spring
But I need a man, not a tumbleweed
And I keep my dancing shoes on
Long after you're gone
Well, you hold me just tight enough
I spend your money, so you treat me rough
Well, men will tell me that I burn and shine
But I can't find one that'll treat me kind
And I keep my dancing shoes on
Long after you're gone
Well, what about me?
I want to be loved
Yeah, what about me?
I want to be loved
Well, I might tell you a lie to show that
You could know my skin, but there's more to know
And the nights will keep pouring out like beer
You come and go, but I'll stay here
And I keep my dancing shoes on
Long after you're gone
After you're gone
After you're gone
After you're gone
After you're gone
After you're gone
After you're gone
