Shannon Lyrics

Woke up this morning, the sun on my face
I noticed your clothes were all over the place
"Shannon, forgive me, I thought you were dead"
For your pillow had not seen your beautiful head
Could it have been all the things that we said?
Shannon, I wish you were back in my bed
Oh, I know it's not easy for you
But I can love you forever
Please just take it one step at a time
Darlin' never say never ever, ever again
You keep forgetting that I'm just a man
Can't compete with the bottle, don't think that I can
Last night is all history, tomorrow's a mystery
So please don't be losing today in your haste
Shannon, it's such a terrible sin
To lose all that we have
Can we make a decision today
That takes away all our sorrow?

Now just think of the things that I say
Then think and think again
They're all coming true in a beautiful way
That gives us hope for tomorrow
All my thinking was in the paste tense
"Where was it, where were you?"
Was not making sense
You're having the time of your life
Young and carefree and anything goes
Making the most of your time
No thought for the future just live for today
Shannon my darlin' hear this, so you know
"If you touch the Devil, you'll never let go!"
Oh Shannon
