If a baby is born and no one complainsThen that's good luck, runnin' through young veinsAnd if life is a blessingThat brushes the tops of the treesWell it's a short walk, in a sweet breezeI will need you, feed you,Seed you, plead with youAll for a taste of your sweet love, ThelmaIf the heart is an open memory bookThat was the chance I tookThe more I searchedThe more I shook for ThelmaLast night I slept on a rented pillowA silver moon above my headA thirsty dreamless sleep released meAnd I reached for the phone by the side of the bedNow the first time that I saw you I thoughtShe's beautiful, but she's too young to be caughtPeople aware of my historyTrying to steer you away from meI left a message at your hotelDon't let management poison the wellI will need you, feed you,Seed you, plead with youAll for a taste of your sweet love, ThelmaThe phone is ringing and I realizeWe are time zones and oceans apartThe words I speak in the middle of my nightFall on your yesterday's heartIf the sun don't shineIf the wind don't breakIf the clock don't jump off the wallThelma, my darlin', I will cushion your fallI will need you, feed you,Seed you, plead with youWithout the taste of your sweet love, ThelmaI am only a man who skirted the edge of despairFor a long time, nowAnd I don't careI watch you sleeping in the hospital bedThe baby curled up in a ballWinter sunlight hits the family treeAnd everything else becomes nothing at all
