| Every time | |
| I go downtown | |
| I think I might find you around. | |
| I take your picture just in case, anybody's seen- | |
| A girl who's had her better days, just like the last place that you stayed, | |
| Where I can see you tipping back the curtains, looking for me. | |
| You say. “ | |
| Baby do you have to go away | |
| Just before the deal gets real sweet, | |
| Just before my trouble finally pays off, | |
| Can you cover for me?” | |
| I see you coming down the hill. | |
| You smile at me like | |
| I'm a worn out thrill, | |
| As if I have some endless well of dignity. | |
| You cut yourself like a high school kid- | |
| I did it once, everybody did, | |
| Just to feel the emptying of everything. | |
| Just to watch it all go away, | |
| Every time the deal gets real sweet, | |
| Every time our trouble finally paid off. | |
| We said, “ | |
| Cover for me, cover for me.” | |
| It's 2 years of depravity for every year of recovery, | |
| And you'll lose eventually, if that's what you need. | |
| Of all the friends that make me sad, | |
| You're the one | |
| I just can't have- | |
| All the numbers that you left me, | |
| They just ring and ring. | |
| I said, “Baby do you have to go away, | |
| Just before the deal gets real sweet, | |
| Just before my trouble finally pays off, | |
| Can't you cover for me, like | |
| I covered for you, |
| Every time | |
| I go downtown | |
| I think I might find you around. | |
