Nine Times Blue - Michael Nesmith, The First National Band

Theres a certain something in the way

You looked at me and said youd stay

That let me know that I was out of line

But I didnt know what else to do And like a fool I tested you,

By demanding things of you which werent mine

And now I feel like such a fool

For making you crawl back to me But you did it with such love

That youre standing far above

Me and all I did to you

Im sorry now, what can I do?

I know that never in the world

That I have found me such a girl

Whos there to pick me up before I fall

And if in the end we should go Both our separte ways I know

The lesson Ive learned here is worth it all.
