Standing on the corner
|
Plastic cup in her hand
|
Standing on the corner
|
Saving for some gin
|
You don't need to ask where she's been or what's up
|
She'll gladly tell you all about the life she had
|
Before she had the cup
|
|
Standing by the window
|
Glass of milk in his hand
|
What could I have done what could I have said
|
Broken glass spilled milk lying on the floor looking dead
|
|
Window pain
|
Cutting through the rain looks so easy
|
Frame by frame
|
Looking for a name to claim on a breezy afternoon
|
And the ends coming soon
|
|
So many people hold a cup
|
So many die drinking milk in front of a window
|
I once knew a woman who got in the way
|
Of the intentions of a windy day
|
Don't hold a cup in any season
|
Don't make me choose between rhyme or reason
|
Don't drink that milk in front of that window
|
You might as well blame it on the will that the wind chose
|
