She had a long line of lovers, mostly the gambling kind. I didn't want to be like the others and get left behind. I heard about her bad reputation and how she had a heart of stone, How she'd give a man a moment of pleasure to get what she want.
I had a weakness for her kind of woman, I could never deny. I knew I would never see it coming until I was lost in her eyes. The more I tried to keep her at a distance, the more I became aware She was breaking down my resistance till I no longer cared.
Tonight I saw the red, red rose in a yellow moon, Shining on a silhouette lying in the shadows of my bedroom. I knew it when we made love and I couldn't quit calling her name, And I've been hit by another fast movin' train. I've been hit by another fast movin' train.
I wondered as I lay there and held her, why can't this be real? Why the fear wouldn't let me tell her how could she make me feel. I doubt it if she would even be around when the moment comes. I waited till she fell asleep to whisper, "Baby, look what you've done."
