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 wants
I had a weakness for her kind of woman
I could never deny
I knew I wouldn`t ever see it coming
`Til I was lost in her eyes
But the more I tried to keep her at a distance
The more I became aware
She was breaking down my resistance
`Til I no longer cared
(CHORUS)
Tonight I saw the red, red rose and the yellow moon
Shining on the silhouette lying in the shadows of my bedroom
I knew it when we made love and I couldn`t quit calling her name
That I`d been hit by another fast movin` train
I`d been hit by another fast movin` train
I wondered as I lay there and held her
Why can`t this be real
And why the fear wouldn`t let me tell her
How good she made me feel
I doubted if she would even be around when the morning comes
I waited `til she fell asleep to whisper,
"Baby, look what you`ve done."
(REPEAT CHORUS TWICE)
