Gordon Lightfoot / Sundown

 

I can see her lyin back in her satin dress
In a room where you do what you don't confess.
Sundown, you better take care
If I find you been creepin round my back stairs.
Sundown, you better take care
If I find you been creepin round my back stairs.

She's been lookin like a queen in a sailor's dream
And she don't always say what she really means.
Sometimes I think it's a shame
When I get feelin better when I'm feelin no pain.
Sometimes I think it's a shame
When I get feelin better when I'm feelin no pain.

I can picture every move that a man could make;
Gettin lost in her lovin is your first mistake.
Sundown, you better take care
If I find you been creepin round my back stairs.
Sometimes I think it's a sin
When I feel like I'm winnin' when I'm losin' again.

I can see her lookin fast in her faded jeans
She's a hard lovin woman, got me feelin mean.
Sometimes I think it's a shame
When I get feelin better when I'm feelin no pain.
Sundown, you better take care
If I find you been creepin round my back stairs.
Sundown you better take care
If I find you been creepin round my back stairs.
Sometimes I think it's a sin
When I feel like I'm winnin when I'm losin again.
