Gov`t Mule Temporary Saint Lyrics

Temporary Saint Lyrics

you ask me when I'm gonna return
I ask you "why so much concern?"
the same
snakes that drive you from my bed
turn to voices and drive me out of my
head
for fourteen days since you been back around
trying to keep my
spirits high and my demons down
but, can't you see
you got to save me or
set me free

'cause I'm falling in deeper - darkness, my old
friend
I'm in deeper - stay with me till the end
deeper - you know I got
no restraint
I'm in deeper
and lucky you
you get to be my
saint
temporary saint

cleaning up one more time is sure getting
old
why don't you bury me like the dirt that's in my soul
what makes you
think you could love me, anyway?
ain't nobody told you about the way I
operate
ain't nobody told you, baby?
well, I guess that makes you the
only one

'cause I'm falling in deeper - darkness, my old friend
I'm
in deeper - stay with me till the end
deeper - you know I got no
restraint
I'm in deeper
and lucky you, yeh, lucky you
you get to be my
saint
temporary saint

angel of mercy, set me free
do you really
give a damn for me?

'cause I'm falling in deeper - darkness, my old
friend
I'm in deeper - stay with me till the end
deeper - you know I got
no restraint
I'm in deeper
