And I wish I been out in California

But I been burnin' my bell, book and candle,

Sometimes I think about you, baby,
Sometimes I cry about you.
Sometimes I wanna wrap my coat around you,
Sometimes I wanna keep you warm.
Sometimes I wanna wrap my coat around you,
Sometimes I wanna but I can't afford you.

| I can't believe I'm the first to comment on this song. It's easily the best thing off Goats Head Soup (not that that says much). No Keith Richards because of his heroin addiction, so Mick Jagger plays rhythm guitar and Mick Taylor plays an amazing lead. Add tearjerking lyrics and a beautiful string section and you have one of the all time great Stones ballads. | |
