My Mistress Lyrics

My mistress is unbending
She's jealous and demanding
And she's keeping me from spending
Any time with anyone

She comes to me at daytimes
And she comes to me at night
But she comes to me too seldom
And I'm waiting and I'm waiting all the time

Oh, I'm saving myself for you
Oh, I don't know what else I can do

I love her beyond reason
And I love her beyond pain
And I know she treats me badly
But I love her just the same

'Cause she can shine like spotlight silver
She can cheer the sellout crowds
But she's always there before me
And I'm chasing and I'm chasing all the time

Oh, I'm saving myself for you
Oh, I don't know what else I can do

Oh, I can't quit for money
And I can't quit for loveJohn McVey - My Mistress - http://motolyrics.com/john-mcvey/my-mistress-lyrics.html
And no matter how I'm tempted
You're all I'm thinking of

And I've always been faithful
And I've always been true to you

My mistress if unbending
I supsect that she's pretending
That she'll give me all I want
If I'll just stay another day

She's taken all my courage
And she's taken all my heart
And I keep hanging on her promise
And it's tearing me apart

I've balanced my emotions
Like a drunkard on a wire
On the one hand, I've my logic
On the other, my desire

We are walking such a fine line
I don't know if we'll survive
But one thing I know for sure is
When I'm with her, I'm alive

Oh, I'm saving myself for you
Oh, I don't know what else I can do
