Don’t just stand there in the doorway
cause I hate to see you cry
and don’t try to ignore me
just smile and wave your hand goodbye

to you I’ll send a dozen roses
from every town that I been in
and as long as leaves ain’t falling
you’ll know the shape that I been in

on the grey side of the mountain
you can hear my train roll by
baby I can be forgiven,
but I’m never satisfied

chase the rain out from your heart dear
cause I know you will survive
if I’m not living on the edge dear
then I might not be alive

and in the winter of December
turn your good side on the chill
and in the winter please remember
I loved you then and I love you still

out my window leaves are falling
and my train is passing by
baby I can be forgiven,
but im never satisfied
