Keely Aimee sat next to me
|
My hair stood up on end
|
And Keely Aimee, maybe one night
|
We could be better friends
|
I know this town's been hard on you
|
I've seen the neighbors close their shades
|
But Keely, they've got their secrets too
|
So you fell in some mud, you haven't fallen from grace
|
|
Keely Aimee, I'm sure you dreamed you'd do far greater things
|
But, Keely, I wish you wouldn't dwell on what could and couldn't be
|
I know how dreams can let you down
|
I've had some rude awakenings
|
But Keely, I still go back to sleep
|
In the dead of night you spring to life for me
|
|
Keely Aimee
|
Keely Aimee
|
|
Keely Aimee, I know this world is such a heavy weight
|
And, Keely Aimee, those crows feet perched at such an early age
|
Well, I'd help you shoo those birds away
|
If the burden's just too much
|
See, Keely, I love your suffering like gravity loves a stumbling drunk
|
|
So Keely Aimee, lay next to me
|
Rest your head against mine
|
In all of the world I've never known a sadder Valentine
|
And when will I sleep and dream of the city towering into the clouds?
|
We'll run through the streets anonymously
|
A whole new life
|
If only we knew how
|
|
Keely Aimee
|
If only we knew how
|
Keely Aimee
|
Oh, no, no
|
If we knew how
|
If we knew how
|
If we knew how
|
|

The Good Life |
