Wild Wind

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
