Bad Examples - From Ragtime To Rags Lyrics
A cheap oneTo take you from here to heavenDo you believe that that will do for you?A quick oneTo unwind the slow turning hoursDo you believe that thats what you deserve?You touch my arm with your handAnd my secret eye sees your shirt on the floorAnd I pull away while trying to stay by your sideAnd Im tumbling, tumblingOut of the open arms of sinTumbling, tumblingFrom ragtime to rags againListenIm thinking words Im not sayingThis is not the time to betray my desire for youIm sorryI led you into my indecisionI was hoping that you could wash my confusion awayYou touch my arm with your handAnd my secret eye sees your shirt on the floorAnd I pull away while trying to stay by your sideAnd Im tumbling, tumblingOut of the open arms of sinTumbling, tumblingFrom ragtime to rags againPartingTorn from your side with a whisperWe stare at the clock aware that its too lateTrust meSomeday we will be loversBut somehow I wish that Id shared a cheap one with youAnd Im tumbling, tumblingOut of the open arms of sinTumbling, tumblingFrom ragtime to rags again
