Sweet Magnolia
his things are scattered everywhere
Your prince charming
so bloody poised, so debonair
The telephone
it rings and rings but I'm not there
I ran away
Once I promised you my love
but that was not enough
Tonight down by the street
He's waiting patiently
Wish I'd still love you but I don't
you turned my heart to stone
and though I hate to go
It's only tears you know
She's calling me
her flowers washed down by the rain
"I'll wait for thee"
no sleep, no rest, no longer sane
but don't you feel
the loss, the pain: it's so inane
No longer mine
My ocean's too wide
You're drowning here tonight
we're floating in a darkness
where the cold begins to bite
There will be no tomorrow
no turning of the tide
a deep blue sea keeps calling
submerging open-eyed
