|
Feelin' ticklish, just met a new girl |
|
She's got a tattoo, said she remembers you |
|
Oh, one day waitin' out the rain |
|
She embroidered the portrait of a tortured artist on your sleeve |
|
Laugh at your own jokes |
|
Ooh, wouldn't dare laugh at yourself, what a surprise |
|
Happy, happy birthday to you |
|
Oh, you're mama's little dream come true |
|
She painted the colors of the sunset with her fingers on my teepee |
|
Likes cold, cold wine, cradled in the evening sky |
|
Drinks in the deep dark reds of romance and poetry |
|
Ooh, laughs out loud as movie stars shed their tears |
|
In her sleep she dreams with melancholy |
|
And I know, I know I'm just like you |
|
I was leaving in a way, I'm already gone |
|
Still young, no, oozing to the radio |
|
Oh, like poetry a tired cowboy just let his horse run free |
|
I know, ooh, I'm just like you |
|
Not goin' anywhere, feel near gone |
|
There's a van passing fast |
|
Moving in stereo |
|
Barely see her face |
|
Or maybe outline |
|
I'm not, I can barely see |
|
Even as she sleeps |
|
Oh, she laughs so long, laughing loud |
