6 a.m. day after |
|
ChristmasI throw some clothes on in the dark |
|
The smell of cold, car seat is freezing |
|
The world is sleeping, |
|
I am numbAn' up the stairs to her apartment |
|
She is balled up on the couch |
|
Her mom and dad went down to |
|
CharlotteThey're not home to find us out |
|
And we drive |
|
Now that I have found someone |
|
I'm feeling more alone |
|
Than I ever have before |
|
She's a brick and |
|
I'm drowning slowly |
|
Off the coast and |
|
I'm headed nowhere |
|
She's a brick and |
|
I'm drowning slowly |
|
They call her name at 7:30 |
|
I pace around the parking lot |
|
Then I walk down to buy her flowers |
|
And sell some gifts that |
|
I gotCan't you see |
|
It's not me you're dying for |
|
Now she's feeling more alone |
|
Than she ever has before |
|
She's a brick and |
|
I'm drowning slowly |
|
Off the coast and |
|
I'm headed nowhere |
|
She's a brick and |
|
I'm drowning slowly |
|
As weeks went by it showed that she was not fine |
|
They told me son it's time to tell the truth |
|
And she broke down and |
|
I broke down' |
|
Cause I was tired of lying |
|
Driving back to her apartment |
|
For the moment we're alone |
|
And she's alone and |
|
I'm aloneAnd now |
|
I know itShe's a brick and |
|
I'm drowning slowly |
|
Off the coast and |
|
I'm headed nowhere |
|
She's a brick and |
|
I'm drowning slowly |
