Can you **** me before you go? I can't spend another night alone after knowing you so well And I'm staring at the ceiling listening to you breathe I've still got a lot of goodbying to do but I can put 'em off As long as it takes Put my faith back in love
So what do they get by sitting on fences? Your feet will never touch the ground You can't walk You can't run You can't sleep in the sun You can't dance until the sun goes down
Dreams are something you have to steal and drag them into life I dreamed of Jackie O and I dreamed with her two weeks We were cold and we were starving so I left in the morning And she said "Once you leave you won't come back." She carried a bottle whiskey. She was neat and she was dizzy. We spiraled out
Then I dreamed of a girl from Ohio Who was a trail of excuses that circled around and around her neck An off-brand noose
I learned the hard way to hold on tightly and let the wind carry you away like a seed You gotta leave quick so you can be the first flower of the season And you'll pick it without knowing it's the first for a reason And nobody will ever see us again
