When We Lay There

Was without love when a stranger came into sight.
Beautiful and cruel like the desert night.
I wanted him so bad I picked my biggest fight.
At dawn he hit me on the hips
and he hit me right. Was without love when a stranger fell on my heart.
Struck down at the foot of the ladder of a god. I wanted him so bad I dragged him down in the dark. At dawn he hit me on the hips and he hit me hard. Many times Ive seen the sun come up to give the mountain a fiery head. But I aint seen nothing in my life like that morning when we lay there and he said for you have fought with men and god and you have always won.
