I never saw the mornin'
	'til I stayed up all night
  I never saw your sunshine
	'til I turned out your lovelight baby
  I never saw my hometown
	until I stayed away too long
  I never heard the melody
	until I needed the song

  I never saw the white line
	'til I was leavin' you behind
  I never knew I needed you
	until I was caught up in a bind
  I never spoke "I love you" 
	'til I cursed you in vain
  I never felt my heart strang
	until I nearly went insane

  I never saw the east coast 
	until I moved to the west
  I never saw the moonlight 
	until it shone off of your breast
  I never saw your heart 
	until someone tried to steal it away, 
  I never saw your tears 
	until they rolled down your face

  I never saw the mornin' 
	'til I stayed up all night
  I never saw your sunshine 
	'til you turned out your lovelight babe
  I never saw my hometown 
	until I stayed away too long
  I never heard the melody 
	until I needed the song
