Every day I see you looking in

Every day I see you looking in
 I'll be the smoothest thing to touch your skin
 You're longing to be loved but you're alone
 And your longing makes you shiver to the bone

And no, your mamma told you nothing of importance
 No, your daddy taught you nothing you could learn
 You had your sister's weighing on your pockets
 And your priest, he tries so hard to get you turned

Maybe you've been living lonely
 While your woman has a fellow on the side
 Your kids keep telling jokes that ain't that funny
 And you've failed in everything that comes to mind

Now you see I'm only here to let you know
 That I love you and I'll never let you go
 So take me in the hand and walk on by
 For the life this has to offer twists inside

Now your woman has a fellow in your bed
 You have to go, you have to move right in
 And the ring on your finger would leave another scar
 But the joke's on her, she hasn't seen it all

So you shuffled up close and you shot him in the face
 And your woman looked on and your children, they embraced
 And the candle's still burning and the fire's roaring fire
 You moved right in, yeah, you moved right in

Stuck, you're shaking, sweating, whining and regretting
 You're making a scene but it's gonna get you caught
 Meet me in the barrel and tell me that you love me
 Yes, this is a kiss that I swear will blow your mind
