Well bravo,
|
You lit a light in my life,
|
Raised them chips and railroads,
|
Headed off into the night.
|
But you were just like the government,
|
Lying all the time,
|
With a shattered piece of way-back-when
|
Stuck, forever in your mind.
|
|
When, baby, it was you and me,
|
One step forward, two step fighting infidelity,
|
Which always is velvet-covered.
|
|
I woke,
|
I awoke into a ghost
|
Of a ship that sailed,
|
But I'ma laugh it up the most,
|
'Cause I no longer have to worry
|
'Bout the shadows on your walls.
|
Can you remember how proud we were
|
Right before the fall?
|
|
When, baby, it was you and me,
|
One step forward, two step fighting infidelity,
|
Though, truly we don't mind
|
Sleeping on a different bed,
|
Long as you got velvet covers.
|
Shouting it out to remind you,
|
Hangin' it out to dry.
|
