about

a story of the delusions of love - references made to "Stage Coach" a John Wayne film

lyrics

I'm an actress
I can really put it on
Like the star of a great romance
Darling, I can really fall
Fall into every moment
Of sweet lover's bliss
Put everything I have
Into our first kiss
But I'll tell you a secret
No, it's not the first time
That the spell's been cast
That I've crossed the line
And it won't be the last
Cuz I know my ways
I fall too fast
Then I run away

But you could be my John Wayne,
John Wayne
Riding ponies on the western plains
Untie me from the rails
Free me from the train
Oh you could be my John Wayne

I was banished to a brothel
You had just broke out the pen
Lord knows I'm no angel
I've tasted my share of sin

But you passed no judgment
You felt no shame
Asked me to your ranch in Texas
And offered me your name

Well you could be my John Wayne,
John Wayne
Riding ponies on the western plains
Untie me from the rails
Free me from the train
Oh you could be my John Wayne,
John Wayne
Riding ponies on the western plains
Untie me from the rails
Save me from the train
Oh you could be my John Wayne

Till death do us part
Forever more
Do you believe that love is worth dying for

Well you could be my John Wayne,
John Wayne
Riding ponies on the western plains
Untie me from the rails
Free me from the train
Oh you could be my John Wayne,
John Wayne
Riding ponies on the western plains
Untie me from the rails
Free me from the train
Oh you could be my John Wayne
Oh you could be my John Wayne
Oh you could be my John Wayne
