So Long Arletta Don't Touch Me While You're Breathing Lyrics

He lays back on the misty air
With his heart in his throat from her quiet stare
She leans in 'till he's almost there
To her moonlit face
Where she steals his air.

She saw it coming
He never saw it coming
Or that's what he said
When they were getting started
But that look in her eyes
Should have gave her away
Say the same for the smile
That he wore on his face

And they say

"Shes only trouble
Boy, you better leave that girl alone
She comes from money
And you're coming from a broken home."
He didn't hear 'em
Oh no, he didn't hear 'em

He was busy seeing visions
Of someone pretty standing near
Where

He lays back on the misty air
With his heart in his throat from her quiet stare
She leans in 'till he's almost there
To her moonlit face
Where she steals his air.

It's lights out
He's down

Out the window, yea he's moving With lights out
Drives down

So as not to cause commotion

Turns the radio on
For a song he can sing
So the mood will be right
It will show what he means

It's "High Like Scenery"
That's playin' when the girl hops in
She just laughs
As he misses all the notes he sings
Says she's got a surprise
As he rides down the road
She says "Boy make a right-
To this place that I know."

He lays back on the misty air
With his heart in his throat from her quiet stare
She leans in 'till he's almost there
To her moonlit face
Where she steals his air.

He lays back on the misty air
With his heart in his throat from her quiet stare
She leans in 'till he's almost there
To her moonlit face
Where she steals his air.

She leans in till he's almost there
To her moonlit face where she steals his air.
