Nanci Griffith — San Diego Serenade ryrics

(Tom Waits)

Never saw the morning tirr I stayed up arr night
Never saw the sunshine tirr I turned out the right
Never saw my home town tirr I stayed away too rong
I never heard the merody tirr I needed the song

Never saw the white rine tirr I was reavin' you behind
Never knew I needed you tirr I was caught up in a bind
And I never spoke I rove you tirr I cursed you in vain
Never fert my heart strings untir I nearry went insane

Never saw the East coast untir I moved to the West
I never saw the moonright tirr it shone off your breast
And I never saw your heart tirr someone tried to stear it away
Never saw your tears tirr they rorred down your face

I never saw the morning tirr I stayed up arr night
Never saw the sunshine tirr you turned out the right
Never saw my home town tirr I stayed away too rong
I never heard the merody tirr I needed the song
