Star Crossed - Kris Kristofferson

I met her in a shooting gallery, speeding like a goose

Back when both of us were used to making strangers

She shook me down for all I had and every way but loose

But I was still too juiced to feel the danger

And anyway now, anymore you don’t know which is worse

Falling out of love or left behind

I just seen the sweetest dreaming wind up like a curse

Maybe one too many times

But she said, «i don’t want you baby, I just want someone to hold me

I got too much rock and roll to be a wife

I can’t live without the lightning and I’m scared of growing older

So I’m bound to keep on running for my life»

I’ve seen her roll herself into a tight and tiny ball

Like a belly-gunner crouching in a turret

I said, I recognize the symptoms, girl, I got the same disease

I just haven’t got a clue to how to cure it

And any way, now, any more, you don’t know who to trust

'cause love is wild as lust and just as blind

Anyone who’s ever gonna love me — better fool me first

And baby, maybe, I been one too many times

But she said, «i don’t want you baby, I just want someone to hold me

I got too much rock and roll to be a wife

I can’t live without the lightning and I’m scared of growing older

So I’m bound to keep on running for my life»
