Tom Waits - the man

I never saw the morning til I stayed up all night

I never saw the sunshine til you turned out the light

I never saw my hometown until I stayed away too long

I never heard the melody, until I needed a song.

I never saw the white line, til I was leaving you behind

I never knew I needed you til I was caught up in a bind

I never spoke i love you til I cursed you in vain,

I never felt my heartstrings until I nearly went insane.

I never saw the east coast til I move to the west

I never saw the moonlight until it shone off your breast

I never saw your heart til someone tried to steal,

Tried to steal it away

I never saw your tears until they rolled down your face

Tom Waits..
