The clouds overhead seem to be moving

How am I doing, you ask?

I opened the door again just to take a chance

Danced with the wind, just to know

How does it feel?

Slammed it shut once again

As I’ve done before

No more, I promise myself

The diamond necklace in the drawer

Calling out my name

Where is my crazy girl?

(Chorus)

I’d rather write a love song for no one

Than to have my soul retied

It’s a bittersweet feeling

More bitter, less sugar this time

I tried and I failed

Pick myself back up

Wear that pretty green Christmas shirt

Brush it off, lose some hope

And start all over again

Where are you now?

(Verse 2)

Well, the kids on 5th street don’t have much

No mother, where’s the money

An internal poverty

It’s a world without shelter

Fuck you, helter skelter

Sick of the pain, where are those pills?

They make me sleep

In a slumber, no qualms to fill

No more ugly residue of this painful experience

I watched it die, filled the grave with dirt

My heart? Sure, it still hurts

But, that’s okay

Being alone beats this any day

But, I still miss you from far away

(Chorus)

I’d rather write a love song for no one

Than to have my soul retied

It’s a bittersweet feeling

More bitter, less sugar this time

I tried and I failed

Pick myself back up

Wear that pretty green Christmas shirt

Brush it off, lose some hope

And start all over again

Where are you now?

(Verse 3)

It’s a long, long road to redemption

I still think about you whenI kiss

Remember the horses? "Only After Midnight!"

When I hold his hand, thoughts of you

A Christmas eve, one night or two

A year, that’s when you know it’s love

Like I said, it’s all bitter now

This wine turned into terpentine

Two down, one to go

Where is my crazy boy and his crazy beau?
