Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
If time itself was his demeanor
There'd be no sunlight or a glimmer
Of sunlight landi' on the street
Sunsuit girls must be discreet
Sunsuit girls must be discreet
Nursing their fathers locked inside
They masqueraded as his bride
I might like you better
If we slept together
But there's somethin'
In your eyes that says
Maybe that's never
Never say never
The slump by the courthouse
With windburn skin
That man could give a fuck
About the grin on your face
As you walk by, randy as a goat
He's sleepin' on papers
When he'd be warm in your coat
I might like you better
If we slept together
But there's somethin'
In your eyes that says
Maybe that's never
Never say never
There's no easy way to lose your sight
On the street, on the stairs
Who's on your flight
Old couple walks by, as ugly as sin
But he's got her and she's got him
Never say never
There'd be no sunlight or a glimmer
Of sunlight landi' on the street
Sunsuit girls must be discreet
Sunsuit girls must be discreet
Nursing their fathers locked inside
They masqueraded as his bride
I might like you better
If we slept together
But there's somethin'
In your eyes that says
Maybe that's never
Never say never
The slump by the courthouse
With windburn skin
That man could give a fuck
About the grin on your face
As you walk by, randy as a goat
He's sleepin' on papers
When he'd be warm in your coat
I might like you better
If we slept together
But there's somethin'
In your eyes that says
Maybe that's never
Never say never
There's no easy way to lose your sight
On the street, on the stairs
Who's on your flight
Old couple walks by, as ugly as sin
But he's got her and she's got him
Never say never

The way this song speaks to me🥺🥺when I sing it I feel like I relate
Holiday

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
Love QOTSA but hate this cover. It sucks. Bassline is fucking brilliant but you wouldn't know it listening to this version. Listen to Romeo Void's original & you'll know what I mean.
