|
When a switch turns on she just can't stop it. |
|
Feeling all this weight and keeps losing some. |
|
She's thinking about making appointments, |
|
And I'm hoping that she'll just snap out of it. |
|
I sleep over at her apartment, |
|
After I finish my evening shift. |
|
She wants to leave the escarpment, |
|
And she's hoping |
|
I can take a hint. |
|
But when we hear each other, she tells me "it's alright". |
|
Carve your name in the family tree, show me the roots of your bloodline. |
|
I walk lightly when |
|
I'm around her,counting months left on the lease. |
|
I know she' got precious feathers, |
|
So I tip-toe to keep the peace. |
|
But when we hear each other, she tells me "it's alright". |
|
Carve your name in the family tree, show me the roots of your bloodline. |
|
We hit the road for a couple weeks, |
|
And it happened again. |
|
You're a poster from the 1950s, |
|
But you lost another ten. |
|
She hates being alone but you know, |
|
I might not be here in a couple of years. |
|
But when we hear each other, she tells me "it's alright". |
|
Carve your name in the family tree, show me the roots of your bloodline. |
|
Our love was like no other, |
|
She turned me inside out. |
|
Carve your name in the family tree, show me the roots of your bloodline. |
