She had a long line of lovers
Mostly the gambling kind
I didn`t want to be like the others
And get left behind
I heard about her bad reputation
And how she had a heart of stone
How she`d give a man
A moment of pleasure
To get what she want.
I had a weakness for her kind of woman
I could never deny
I knew I would never see it coming
Until I was lost in her eyes
The more I tried to keep her at a distance
The more I became aware
She was breaking down my resistance
Till I no longer cared.
Tonight I saw the red red rose
In a yellow moon
Shining on a silhouette
Lying in the shadows of my bedroom
I knew it when we made love
And I couldn`t quit calling her name
And I`ve been hit by another fast movin` train
I`ve been hit by another fast movin` train.
I wondered as I lay there and held her
Why can`t this be real?
Why the fear wouldn`t let me tell her
How could she make me feel
I doubt it if she would even be around
When the moment comes
I waited till she fell asleep
To whisper
Baby, look what you`ve done.
Tonight I saw the red red rose
In a yellow moon
Shining on a silhouette
Lying in the shadows of my bedroom
I knew it when we made love
And I couldn`t quit calling her name
And I`ve been hit by another fast movin` train
Tonight I saw the red red rose
In a yellow moon
Shining on a silhouette
Lying in the shadows of my bedroom
I knew it when we made love
And I couldn`t quit calling her name
And I`ve been hit by another fast movin` train
I`ve been hit by another fast movin` train.
