|
Well bravo, |
|
You lit a light in my life, |
|
Raised them chips and railroads, |
|
Headed off into the night. |
|
But you were just like the government, |
|
Lying all the time, |
|
With a shattered piece of way-back-when |
|
Stuck, forever in your mind. |
|
When, baby, it was you and me, |
|
One step forward, two step fighting infidelity, |
|
Which always is velvet-covered. |
|
I woke, |
|
I awoke into a ghost |
|
Of a ship that sailed, |
|
But I'ma laugh it up the most, |
|
'Cause I no longer have to worry |
|
'Bout the shadows on your walls. |
|
Can you remember how proud we were |
|
Right before the fall? |
|
When, baby, it was you and me, |
|
One step forward, two step fighting infidelity, |
|
Though, truly we don't mind |
|
Sleeping on a different bed, |
|
Long as you got velvet covers. |
|
Shouting it out to remind you, |
|
Hangin' it out to dry. |
