This road walks long   As you reach for the charms of night’s heart   Flog down another ride   And head for another sky’s new spark   You need it cause it’s all you want now tonight   The road of diamonds blind her out of sight now tonight      The further you stride   The magnet of her eyes restrain you   You feel the heavy weight   As your lonesome heartache floors you   Unconscious in your winded mind you cry   You’re counted out before the prize   Has had a chance to steal your eyes      Suddenly you figure out   The picture fades along with the sounds   When she’s not around, when she’s not around   I need her to lay me down      I found my way home   And I walked a bad road to your heart   Your heart’s an empire   But all I desire is just one spark   I need you cause you’re all I have now tonight
