Curtain CallsIn a western town, beneath the northern lightsWhere the pine trees pine for the fall of night You believe in cards and you believe in signs And I'll be leavin' soon, but I'm here tonight On a mountainside, well below the stars You keep your lovers eyes in Mason jars And I should be scared, but I feel no fear 'Cause I'll be leavin' soon, but tonight I'm here And even if you are the one And even if the cards are all true When the curtain calls, oh baby, what's a boy to do? And when the curtain calls, oh baby, what's a boy to do? Well the Southern P. moved her family down Then along came me to her sleepy town I don't believe in cards, I don't believe in signs But I'll be leavin' soon, I'm here tonight And even if you are the one And even if I tried to be true When the curtain calls, oh baby, what's a boy to do? And when the curtain calls, oh baby, what's a boy to do? In a western town, beneath the northern lights Where the pine trees pine for the fall of night Don't believe in me, did I make that clear? 'Cause I'll be long gone soon, but tonight I'm here And even if you were the one I didn't wanna walk out on you But when the curtain calls, oh baby, what's a boy to do? But when the curtain calls, oh baby, what's a boy to do? And when the curtain calls, oh baby, what's a boy to do? |
