Untie me, I've said no vows
|
The train is getting way too loud
|
I've got to leave here, my girl
|
And get on with my lonely life
|
Just lay the ring on the rail
|
For the wheels to nullify
|
|
Until this turn in my head
|
I let you stay and you paid no rent
|
I spent twelve long months on the lam
|
That's enough sitting on the fence
|
For the fear of breaking dams
|
|
I find a fatal flaw
|
In the logic of love
|
And go out of my head
|
You love a sinking stone
|
That will never elope
|
So get used to the lonesome, girl
|
You must atone some
|
Don't leave me no phone number there
|
|
It took me all of a year
|
To put that poisoned pill to your ear
|
But now I stand on honest ground
|
You want to fight for this love
|
But honey, you cannot wrestle a dove
|
So baby, it's clear
|
|
You wanted to jump and dance
|
But you sat on your hands
|
And lost your only chance
|
Go back to your hometown
|
Get your feet on the ground
|
And stop floating around
|
|
I find a fatal flaw
|
In the logic of love
|
And go out of my head
|
You love a sinking stone
|
That will never elope
|
So get used to the lonesome, girl
|
You must atone some
|
Don't leave me no phone number there
|
