My All Time Doll

When I was away I needed you so

And now coming I'm home to stay

I won't wake in the night and reach for you

And turn on the light and to my dismay

You're not there

You're never around

Or is it me?

It's so hard to see

I flick off the switch

And stare in dark

And wait for you to appear

You're My All-Time Doll

I'm out of control

It's broken my mind

But that's not all that you stole

You're My All-Time Doll

You're all I adore

I'd swear to it now it

But I already swore

My eyes are blinded with tears

But it's all my own fault

My lips taste of cruel words

My eyes sting with salt

But you can take the way I feel about you

And put it in a vault

You're My All-Time Doll

From near and from far

I've known many a girl,

Now... I'm closing in

My heart is beating

Like a whip on a hide

It's raining outside

You're My All-Time Doll

I'm out of control

It's broken my mind

That's not all that you stole

You're My All-Time Doll

You're all I adore

I'd swear to it now it

But I already swore

Every time I rant and rail

Every time I try and fail

Any time I want to quit

And say, "That's the end of it"

When I stand and start to leave

You cool my brow, you tug my sleeve

You're My All-Time Doll

I'm walking, I'm pacing, my heart is racing

I swear that clock is running slow

It only speeds up for a moment or so

Each time it's time for me to go

You're My All-Time Doll

I'm out of control

It's broken my mind

That's not all that you stole

You're My All-Time Doll

You're all I adore

I'd swear to it now it

But I already swore

In the far flung cry of a closing saloon

On the blank back side of that poisonous moon

I tried not to think about you

I thought I was immune..

You're My All-Time Doll
