 Chris & Carla: Life Full of Holes, 1995
COMMENTS
Stuart Staples is a guest on the "solo" album of the main artists behind The Walkabouts, Chris Eckman and Carla Torgerson. Here he sings a duet with Carla - the song itself is a cover version of a Country & Western classic by George Jones and Tammy Wynette (the original is quite dreadful honestly..).

LYRICS

Take me
Take me to your darkest room
Close all the windows and bolt all the doors
From the first moment I heard your voice
I'd be in darkness no more

Take me to your most barren desert
A thousand miles from the nearest sea
The very moment I saw your smile
It was like heaven to me

There's not a mountain too rugged to climb
No desert too barren to cross
Darling, if you were to show me a sign
Of love I could bear your loss

Take me to Siberia
The coldest weather of any wintertime
And it would be just like spring in California
As long as I knew you were mine

Take me 4x
