Gloria

Once in a while

I grab my coat and I drive into town

Where I hope I'll see you walking around

Just like I used to

These days burn fast

Faster than my cigarettes can turn into ash

So I just dream about the time I saw you last

And all the other times, too

And Gloria, I've tried

All of their prescriptions

But nothing makes these long nights end

There ain't a single goddamn thing

That I wouldn't give

To see you at my door again

Lately all I've seen is rain

And your face inside a hundred picture frames

You haven't missed much here, it all stays the same

But I guess I like it that way

So if I ever call your name

Oh love of mine, it's just because I like the way it rings

And for you I'll wait forever in the wings

Even when the light is gone away

And Gloria, I've tried

All of their prescriptions

But nothing makes these long nights end

There ain't a single goddamn thing

That I wouldn't give

To see you at my door again

And Gloria, I've tried

All of their prescriptions

But nothing makes these long nights end

There ain't a single goddamn thing

That I wouldn't give

To see you at my door again
