I grabbed your hand
Though you had your doubt
I wouldn’t let go till you put me out

You didn’t quite have the energy
So it began for you and me

Pretty girl in a heartless city
Dreamed I saved you like Walter Mitty

And when I woke to reality
Somehow you saw good in me

Now I know our days are numbered
But I’m not gonna plead
Baby said she wants more than she needs

And you caught me crying I was happy sad
The best was better than the worst was bad
Gratitude for a love’s ascension
We fell low in a bed
Of good intentions

Ramen noodles - Roman candles
Halloween with the poorhouse vandals

Trick or treat till you said to me
Take off your mask and set me free

Alibis and shifty eyes
Cut us to the bone
Are we gonna find our way alone?

And you caught me crying I was happy sad
The best was better than the worst was bad
Valentine gotta ease the tension
We fell low in a bed
Of good intentions

Fated love such a treasure
Every step was a desperate measure

All the pain, half the pleasure
Here to serve, honey, at your leisure
Till it’s over - till it’s over - till it’s over
——-

Alibis and shifty eyes
Cut us to the bone
Are we gonna find our way alone?

And you caught me crying I was happy sad
The best was better than the worst was bad
Gratitude for a love’s ascension
We fell low in a bed
Of good intentions
