Gunslinger

Hm-mm

My head was spinning with delight
He was a heartbreaking lover with diamond eyes
Met in California in my friend's backyard
Fell in love underwater, then he took me to the stars

He had an eye for young women
Liked to shoot them down
Like a gunslinger
Let me tell you, those were the days
I should have played dumb, but I went away

He could have a wandering eye
And he could take me down with his smile
I'm tired of playing the joker now
I'll be a queen, and I'll never let you down

If you take me back
If you want to take me back

He was a traveling man with a story to tell
Flew from city to city, collecting tales
He was a gym catcher, suitcase was filled with smart treasures
Lost in the desert for so long

I picked him up, and I dusted him off
When another might have left him for dead
He had whiskey on his tongue, it was parched by the sun
I never should have given him a chance

I saw the end coming from the beginning
But without him, I'd be nothing at all
I'm just a prisoner of your love
Baby, don't you let me out

You can have a wandering eye
And you can take me down with your smile
I'm tired of playing the joker now
I'll be your everything if you don't let me down

I want you take me back (take me back, take me back)
If you want to take me back (take me back, take me back)
Come, I want you to take me back (take me back, take me back)
Baby, won't you take me back? (Take me back, won't take me back?)

Come and take me back (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Baby, won't you take me back? (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Come, I want you to take me back (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Baby, won't you take me back? (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Take me back, baby
