Jim Stafford - Spiders And Snakes Lyrics

You can't run away forever
But there's nothing wrong with
Getting a good head start
You wanna shut out the night
You wanna shut down the sun
You want to shut away
The pieces of a broken heart

Think of how we'll lay down together
We'd be listening to the radio
So loud and so strong
Every golden nugget coming
Like a gift of the gods
Someone must have blessed us
When he gave us those songs

I treasure your love
I never want to lose it
You've been through the fires of hell
And I know you've got the ashes to prove it
I treasure your love
I want to show you how to use it
You've been through a lot of pain in the dirt
And I know you've got the scars to prove it

Remember everything that I told you
And I'm telling you again that it's true
When you're alone and afraid
And you're completely amazed
To find there's nothing anybody can do
Keep on believing
And you'll discover baby

There's always something magic
There's always something new
And when you really, really need it the most
That's when rock and roll dreams
Come through
The beat is always new
And when you really really need it the most
That's when rock and roll dreams
Come through for you

I treasure your love
I never want to lose it
You've been through the fires of hell
And I know you've got the ashes to prove it
I treasure your love
I want to show you how to use it
You've been through a lot of pain in the dirt
And I know you've got the scars to prove it

Remember everything that I told you
And I'm telling you again that it's true
You're never alone cause you can put on the phones
And let the drummer tell your heart what to do
Keep on believing
And you'll discover baby

There's always something magic
There's always something new
And when you really, really need it the most
That's when rock and roll dreams
Come through
The beat is always new
And when you really really need it the most
That's when rock and roll dreams
Come through
