To Ramona Lyrics & Chords By Texas Tornados

Ramona, come closer
Shut softly your watery eyes
The pangs of your sadness
Will pass as your senses will rise

The flowers of the city
Though breath-like, get death-like at times
And there's no use in trying
To deal with the dying
Though I cannot explain that in lines

Your cracked country lips
I still wish to kiss
As to be by the strength of you skin
Your magnetic movements
Still capture the minutes I'm in

But it grieves my heart, love
To see you trying to be a part of
A world that just don't exist
It's all just a dream, babe
A vacuum, a scheme, babe
That sucks you into feeling like this

I can see that your head
Has been twisted and fed
With worthless foam from the mouth
I can tell you are torn
Between staying and returning
Back to the South

You've been fooled into thinking
That the finishing end is at hand
Yet there's no one to beat you
No one to defeat you
'cept the thoughts of yourself feeling bad

I've heard you say many times
That you're better'n no one
And no one is better'n you
If you really believe that
You know you have
Nothing to win and nothing to lose

From fixtures and forces and friends
Your sorrow does stem
That hype you and type you
Making you feel that you gotta be just like them

I'd forever talk to you
But soon my words, they would turn into a meaningless ring
For deep in my heart
I know there is no help I can bring

Everything passes
Everything changes
Just do what you think you should do
And someday, maybe
Who knows, baby
I'll come and be crying to you
