Well don't you stop wasting time
Come back down the line
I'm right where you left me be--fore
I can't say I've been behaved
You'd not believe me anyways
There's been other women of course
But hold me to this one
I won't make the same mistakes any--more
Come on now darlin' please darken my door
With me is where you belong
So bring your--self back home
We'll tear this town down to the ground
White Water Tavern nights
Old songs and cheap red wine
There's no finer mess to be found
I'll hold you to this one
I still hear your footsteps crossing the floor
Well come on now darlin' please darken my door
Your bare feet on hardwood can barely make a sound
From the kitchen to the bedroom with all the lights down
A glass of water and some whiskey, the smoke in your hair
All I taste is that perfume you wear, all that perfume you
Wear
I don't expect that you to stay
Gone are the good old days
But damn we were sure somethin' else
I've caused enough trouble here
So girl get it in high gear
And come save me from my--self
We'll hold to this one
I still taste that god awful perfume you wore
FINALE:
Now we'll hold to this one
I won't make the same mistakes any--more
Come on now darlin' please darken my door
Come on now darlin'
Come on now darlin'
Come on now darlin' please darken my door
