BLUES TRAVELER lyrics : "The Ache"

This ache, that followed you down
From wherever you both came from
Well he won't leave

Quietly
He just waits here noisily with me


I turn to go but fight instead
It sinks its fangs into my head
And gnaws upon me like a greedy bone

() parts unknown
()
And in return ()

() is full, I grit my teeth
Instincts give no sympathy
For me


And all I want is to stay
Here with you,

For at least a couple minutes more
In the ()
By any reason to find

My foot's still sticking out your car door

This ache, that followed you down

From wherever you both came from
Well he won't leave
Quietly

He just waits here noisily with me

The pots and pans and big $$# bones

() all alone
But never fear the ache is there
And calmly he pulls up a chair

And through the night we play some hands
While the ache he issues his demands
While the ache he issues his demands

()

And all I have is the ache

Just to see you again
But I've got no pretext to
And hope

Won't quench my thirst this time
Can't you see I'm aching for you?


I go to sleep and I awake
And in the kitchen is my ache
It makes me breakfast, ties my shoes

It puts me in time and pays my dues
It sticks a needle in my eye
() (lemon pie??)

Reminds me () bend to break
But I've been given ()


Of this ache, that followed you down
From wherever you both came from
Well he won't leave

Quietly
He just waits here noisily with me


This ache, that followed you down
From wherever you both came from
Well he won't leave

Quietly
He just waits here noisily with me
