Rodney Crowell - Reckless Lyrics

Last night I lay dreaming
I was drinking in a hotel bar
Two women came up and kissed me and you were watching from a distant star
I know it doesn't make much sense
But what can I tell you

Judging by the evidence
I'm feeling reckless

I don't know why I would go there
All to make a fuss over what
I've got a woman like you and what do I do,
Pretend I might be something I'm not

I know you know it's not your fault, it's just something inside me

Would that I were worth my salt
But I'm feeling reckless

You give me more than I give back
It's more than a social skill I lack
So slay me with your tender mercy
And comfort me with words of steel

You can catch me in a lie
When I cast a roving eye
But you'll never know the way I feel

I know you know you're smarter than me
Tell me something I don't know
There's so much more that I could be
But I'm feeling reckless

Last night I lay dreaming
I was drinking in a hotel bar
Two women came up and kissed me
And you were watching from a distant star
