I've a theory of ghosts and i'm a monster to girls |
|
I stick in their heart like a rusty spur |
|
But i've a theory of ghosts: |
|
They're alive and we're all dead; |
|
That they're trying to tell us is that it's this way around |
|
And i've a theory of girls |
|
They always seem to leave in the spring |
|
As if they know that it hurts more |
|
To carry a heartbreak through the summer |
|
In the calender storm, i circled a day and tried to hold on |
|
And in the last powercut, |
|
I whispered her name 'til the lights came on |
|
Smoked my indian pipe |
|
Listened to the static, the snow on the wire |
|
Smoked my indian pipe |
|
Listened to the static, the snow on the wire |
|
I have one photograph that captures her smile |
|
But i don't have a tape of her laugh |
|
Watercolors can't help me |
