Bakersfield

I cut my face leaving this city
on the sharpest words I think I ever did speak
Now, I don't mind apologies all the time
But I swear I'll never, ever say I'm sorry

We caught a lucky break on Valentines Day
I bought a two way ticket and a hotel where we could stay
Meet me here in Bakersfield, halfway
We could settle down and talk the day away

With no self control,
no question why,
no giving up, 
no saying goodbye
no reason to ever stop
loving you

A stranger called on the telephone
it was a dirty prank played by a local boy
Nothing here interest me except you, my dear
So lets pack our bags and never come back again

But we made love late into the morning
I watched you changing in the mirror
The teddy bear I bought was tossed in the corner
We spilled some red wine and caught it on camera

With no self control
no question why,
no giving up,
no saying goodbye
no reason to ever stop
loving you

No letting go, 
no nights alone
no kiss and run,
except with tongue
no reason to ever stop
loving you
