Hadn't slept in days and had no sense of time,
|
My mind and body ached and I just wanted to unwind.
|
So I made my way along a road by some cactus trees,
|
To a little house of wood and stone where I heard she'd be.
|
The word I heard was she could take your blues away
|
Massage your back, your arms, your legs and ease the aches.
|
With every stroke she spoke a word that soothed my hurt,
|
Relaxed me as I drifted off to the tune I heard
|
|
Tangee sweet lady, take away all of the walls,
|
See if I'm inside here after all.
|
Tangee sweet lady, ah, wake up the feelin's in me,
|
And with it set my mind and body free I awoke.
|
I thought for sure this was a dream,
|
As the rain outside the window smelt so fresh and clean
|
The room we shared had handmade touches of her everywhere
|
By her front door I turned and placed a flower in her long brown hair
|
|
Tangee sweet lady, you took away all of the walls
|
And I see that I'm inside here after all
|
Tangee sweet lady you woke up the feelin's in me
|
And with it set my mind and body free
|
|
Tangee
|
Ah, Tangee
