I Wouldn't Mind Dying - Rev. I.B. Ware lyrics

I hear them complain but I know that they don't even try
And the lights down on Main Street don't shine like they used to
And I'm thinking of nothing but spending a lifetime with you

You know that I love you, you know that I wait by your door
You know how I'm feeling, so I won't have to feel it no more
But nobody could love you like I can
Honey, someday you'll wake up and maybe you'll understand

Well, I got a friend of a friend who drives a nice car
And I got acquaintances down at the neighborhood bar
I got some women, they stop by my home
But somehow I end up waking each morning alone

And the train that I ride has got nothing aside
From the phantom conductor with a dog at his side
And the ghost of a weeping, wedding less bride
Who should have been married but never arrived

And I see through the windows like I see through the lies
Like I see through every useless disguise
That everyone wears but everyone swears that they don't
Oh and don't mind me baby, I'm only dying slow

I'm trying so hard just not to think about you
I try not to care about anything that you do
But four in the morning and I can't sleep
Well, the pills ain't workin' and I can't get no relief

I feel like a hound dog moaning along with the rain
Any day now the jukebox could drive me insane
And there's an old man in the corner, nobody knows, he says
‽Laugh while you can 'cause someday you'll be wearing my clothes”

But I guess I can't tell you what you don't already know
I ain't no prophet, my landlord he told me so
But my mind is a burning ring of Saturn flame
And I feel things inside that I, I just can't explain

And I know that you know how to fake and to take
What you break, what you burn, what you never did learn
And you turn and you say that you've made a mistake
As your head starts to spin and your heart starts to ache

But all that you make will be all that you get
When the curtain goes down, so don't you forget
That all your regret is a cheap silhouette and that's all
Oh and don't mind me baby, I'm only dying slow

And I met a gambler who did nothing but lose all day
He had love in his hands but he let her slip away
And all he ever wanted was to give her a win
But all she ever really wanted was him

I hear them complain but I know that they don't even try
And the lights down on Main Street don't shine like they used to
