Lyrics
I watched you working that room
You werte a vision in white
desire of every red blooded man
the tear in every grand ballroom graduation brides eye.
I felt you slip through my fingers
as i watched on the edge of the night.
walk into the arms of forgiveness.
on the border line of darkness and light
so baby take that look of your face
don't think about the wrong and the wright
meet me down by the brigalow tonight.
you wear your life like the lines on your face
a study in motion.
there was a time when to mention your name
could render me broken.
so take a look at me baby
caught between the truth and the lies
wash away the stain of forgiveness
meet me in between the dark and the light.
walk in to the arms of forgiveness
want to hear it from your lips we both matter tonight
meet me down by the brigalow tonight.
