Sweet White Clover

Sweet White Clover

So close yet so far
From my love
One more lonely night
And I’ll be be back home
Remember my love
It’s hard to be alone

Today my body been
Stamped and sold
I’ve been out all night
Howling with the wolves
So burned up
I can barely remember my name

Tired and lonesome
The room is spinning
One look and I knew
This was just the beginning
Her pretty blue eyes could
Make the angels sing

She came up to me
In my peripheral sight
Said forget about our home
Hold each other tight
Like two freight trains
Passing In the night

Stay for now
Sweet White Clover
Resting your head
Upon my shoulder

Taken too much abuse
Feeling disgraced
Clover had nowhere to go
I would be her escape
And a tear drop rolled
Down her china doll face

Sweet Clover came
Up to my room
Should have told her to go
I would be home soon
Laying in the arms
Of my own true love

Stay for now
Sweet White Clover
Resting your head
Upon my shoulder
