Oh my girl your soul Is washed in blood so old But I'm much to blame To call your bluff today On this here shaky ground The places that you've seen Are right there at your feet They twitch in front of me With the memories that you keep On this here shaky ground The nights they seem so long And then the morning comes Its there in your silent charms That I find this calm I ride on home with you But I don't have to stay But I'll take a chance all the same And these late night rendez-vous And reruns of hill street blues The worlds we choose Be careful what you lose On this here shaky ground On this here shaky ground On this here shaky ground
