The Back of Your Hand — текст песни (Dwight Yoakam)

When you give it up for gone but you`re still digging in the mine
And you`re staring out the window saying everything will be just fine
In keeping with the whole affair every word seems out of line
No matter what angle you get it`s polished til it shines

You take a guess where I stand; pick a number from 1 to 2;
Take a look at the back of your hand; just like you know it, you know me too

When you say who the hell am I living with? What just went down?
Where did this come from, why are all my colors faded brown?
When did he change? What`s with the rage?
Who`s the dude with the extra roll, what`s the verse, the line, the chapter, the page?

You take a guess where I stand; pick a number from 1 to 2;
Take a look at the back of your hand; just like you know it, you know me too

You think you`re lost without any place left to go
Like you need one of those kisses long and slow
At first glance it`s not what it seems but there`s some things that I just know
Like you take 2 sugars with a splash of cream
You take a guess where I stand; oh pick a number from 1 to 2;
Then take a look at the back of your hand; just like you know it, you know me too
Yeah like you know it, you know me too; just like you know it... you know me too.
