One Left Shoe
|
Tennis shoe strung 'cross the telephone wire
|
The sun creeps up on my empire
|
Tin foil castle, bubble gum crown
|
Me and my minions make the rounds
|
|
I'm lonely without you
|
Just like one left shoe
|
I'm lonely
|
Without you
|
|
Under the spotlight a neon kiss
|
Carnival barkers preen and twist
|
Three for a quarter, one for a dime
|
This broken heart general store is open all the time
|
|
I'm lonely without you
|
Just like one left shoe
|
I'm lonely
|
Without you
|
|
I'm a little cocoon just blooming for you
|
I take a deep breath, the day is new
|
I'm brave, I'm a hero
|
The world's bright and clear
|
But my insides shrivel when you're not here
|
|
Newspapers piled on my front porch
|
The sun's winding up, it's starting to scorch
|
The air is dust, my lung's are hot
|
I keep making love to what is not
|
I'm lonely without you
|
Just like one left shoe
|
I'm lonely
|
Without you
|
