about

This was the first song I recorded for this session, and I put it last in sequence. I actually found the original cassette rough and it is dated 8-27-89. So, that was the first Never Say Uncle session. I also recorded a tune called All Things, Pocket Book and Last Drunk that day.

lyrics

Still Wanting You by Todd Burge (c) 1990

Sometimes I have a forked tongue
And you have spoon ears
Easily being fed what you want to hear
But this ain't no lie right here, dear
When your jesters hang up their colors and balls
And the real picture hangs up on your walls
When your cigarettes burn to the butt
When you get let down in the gutter
I'll still be wanting you

Your hair falls to your eyes
It cover up these lies we despise
At times we just can't care
At other times there seems to be nothing there
But when you have been through all the hurt
When you can't find another spotless shirt
When you've lost your last brother
When you're left down with no other
I'll still be wanting you

When your crown is taken away
When nothing pays and you feel the pain
After everything is untrue
After you've tested the whole crew
I'll still be wanting you
