Sweet Corinna

Sweet Corinna don’t lie.
You know you don’t want to go.
You don’t have to you know.
You could lie here beside me.
I’ll find you. You’ll hide me.
Sweet Corinna you smile.
What a smile has to say.
I guess it’s o.k.
if I lied down beside you
and slowly untied you.

Save your money and I’ll save mine.
Save your quarter and I’ll save my dime.
We’ll dance about til night time
and lie around til the sun shine.

Sweet Corinna sometimes
the memories shed you.
They don’t forget you.
They just let you be,
with me. It’s true.
Sweet Corinna you see
the train in the town,
the Venus sundown,
the books in the trees,
Sweet Corinna you see, me.

Sweet Corinna be sure.
The hard part’s the only
time you’ll be lonely.
It’ll pass like the weather.
We’re together. You’ll see.
Sweet Corinna please stay.
There’s no place you’ll go
that wants you so.
There’s no music in the bars.
No warmth in the stars. No.
