Left Me In a Hole

Divorcee goes to the bar,
A sophisticat pulls up in his car,
A hopeful youth waits for the first star to come out
The sky above can be so mean, the clouds cover what should be seen,
And there ain't much left too keen in my book
Hangin' on to someone else, he tells you that peace sells,
And you see it like all's well, I ain't jealous
Though you used to listen to me,
My inner thoughts have made you flee,
I know you were just tryin' to be what you want to be
I let you in to see me for real,
And you walked right out that's what I feel,
You said you needed time to be alone
And like the youth I looked above,
Feeling stranded without love,
The time was wrong, and you left me in a hole,
You left me in hole (you left me in a hole),
You left me in hole
The rain it comes, the rain it goes,
The question is she friend or foe,
The story-teller looks to his toes, he's stuck here
The dragon's breath is on my neck,
Which way is home, hold on a sec,
The bartender put a bottle of beer on the table
Many people, they believe that Jesus came here to relieve,
All the problems that we breathe on each other,
And I don't care just what you do,
Well what you think, that's up to you,
You see, those thoughts of yours are not new to me at all
And is it these thoughts that made you believe,
That there's nothing here so you shall leave,
While I sit here with my guitar in my hand
And like the youth I looked above,
Feeling stranded without love
The time was wrong, and you left me in a hole,
You left me in hole (you left me in a hole),
You left me in hole
A hungry baby starts to cry, an old man's about to die,
And all I can do is sit back and sigh, "What's my problem?"
Ignore the problem, that's the key,
Said the woman beneath the tree,
If your eyes are closed, you can't see the sunrise
The phone, it rings, who could it be?
Well, it ain't her, and it's not for me,
Forgetting's as easy as 1-2-3 my friends say,
Her face is still all too clear, her leaving me was my biggest fear,
Something's got to help me steer away from her
You have your life, and I have mine,
Maybe we'll meet again some other time
Down the long road, on another plain
And like the youth I looked above,
Feeling stranded without love
The time was wrong, and you left me in a hole,
You left me in hole (you left me in a hole),
You left me in hole
You left me in hole (you left me in a hole)...
