There's a wild wind that blows across the desert She's got teeth like razors she could tear through a man You could give her your heart but she'll never love you And she'll send you back to your mama again And there's a gambling hall just outside the city I used to frequent there when I was passing through There's a girl there I've never seen such beauty As I sit alone at my table for two I said oh love of mine You weren't what I had in mind When I closed my eyes There's a bar I really like within a ghost town The owner says it's never stood so still Because the company came and they closed all them miles down And everyone went running for the hills Some nights I can't sleep for the darkness Creeps into my room from all the cracks and seams And it scares me to hell and back again As I lay awake and I try not to scream I said oh love of mine You weren't what I had in mind When I closed my eyes I said oh love of mine You weren't what I had in mind When I closed my eyes When I closed my eyes
