Tom Waits — Saving All My Love for You

It's too early for the circus, it's too late for the bars Everyone's sleepin' but the paperboys And no one in this town is makin' any noise But the dogs and the milkmen and me The girls around here all look like Cadillacs And no one likes a stranger here I'd come home, but I'm afraid that you won't take me back But I'd trade off everything just to have you near I know I'm irresponsible and I don't behave And I ruin everything that I do I'll probably get arrested when I'm in my grave But I'll be saving all my love for you I paid fifteen dollars for a prostitute With too much makeup and a broken shoe But her eyes were just a counterfeit, she tried to gyp me out of it But you know that I'm still in love with you Don't listen to the rumors that you hear about me 'Cause I ain't half as bad as they make me out to be Well I may lose my mind, but baby can't you see That I'll be saving all my love for you
