Traveling Wilburys - Dirty World lyrics

Tender moments with a burnt-out cigarette

I'm dying to know what doesn't happen next

Your drunken kisses leave a bitter taste on my lips

It doesn't feel like me anymore,

no lover coming to the door

To rescue me in the middle of the night

[Chorus]

And I don't understand

and I don't give a damn 'cause it's making no sense to me

And I'm caught in between your lies

and my dreams and there's no out that I can see

Maybe the sound of your voice or the brake of your car or a little more than everything

'Cause it's driving me crazy and I can't understand

'cause it's making no sense to me

[Verse 2]

Life becomes one long infomercial

Selling junk only cowards will buy

I'm sitting here figuring and wondering why

Somehow I've asked all the wrong questions

'Cause you've had none of the answers

That these blinded eyes were looking for in you

[Chorus]

[Bridge]

And I don't want to be the one you're not thinking of

And I don't want to be anywhere not near you

I'm sorry if I'm a little confused if you're leaving

Did you ever think that was the wrong thing to do?

[Chorus x3]
