She swore out the lights when she said that she was |
|
only in it for the rain |
|
she made of her bed a naive |
|
nativity |
|
just in case it became - just in case |
|
here's |
|
the 1st of many songs you wanted me to write |
|
just |
|
for you I hope to god you like it |
|
it's as pretty as it |
|
is cruel |
|
it's as pretty as it is cruel |
|
she swore out the |
|
lights when she dammed herself to sleep |
|
her thirteenth |
|
finger my whiskey drink |
|
and she wept at the scene as |
|
the ambulance drove off |
|
come circumference, come |
|
circumstance |
|
here's the 1st of many songs you wanted |
|
me to write |
|
just for you I hope to god you like it |
|
and it may seem pretty cruel but mercy is not my name |
|
and our kids I hope to god you counted them |
|
you're as pretty as you are cruel |
|
you're as pretty as you are cruel |
|
you're as pretty as you are cruel |
