| Goodbye Carolina
|
| I felt cold and I felt weak
|
| Took a midnight bus from Asheville
|
| Passed like a ghost through Tennessee
|
| Brushed the northern edge of Blacksburg
|
| Like the hair off of your cheeks
|
| I wish I could fall asleep, half-dead in the window seat;
|
| Awake for weeks
|
| Good morning Manhattan
|
| Stopped at Port Authority
|
| I’ll take a train under the river
|
| Ride the A out to the G
|
| And I’ll walk along your narrow streets
|
| With a dollar cup of coffee
|
| Letting it stain my teeth
|
| Two sugars, a drop of cream
|
| Bittersweet
|
| God damn, I missed you Brooklyn
|
| Caught my breath here on your streets
|
| I left my winter coat in Charlotte
|
| And I’m cursing at the breeze
|
| I’m hiding out from early March
|
| Read the sign hung in our lobby
|
| Elevator broke last week
|
| I walk the stairs to 403
|
| I don’t blame you for changing the locks
|
| I think I’d probably do the same if it were me
|
| Now I’m gathering up the courage to knock
|
| Not sure what I’m looking for
|
| I don’t know what I want
|
| Do I want anything?
|
| I don’t want anything
|
| Well some college student answers
|
| And my heart crash-lands on the floor
|
| He says he sublet this place last month
|
| He never heard of me before
|
| Well he sees me there collapsing
|
| And he opens up the door
|
| It’s all new furniture; |
| I barely recognize it anymore
|
| He says, «I'm sorry, man. |
| I wish that I knew more
|
| I’m not sure exactly what you’re looking for
|
| But no Dianne, no, she don’t live here anymore»
|
| Anymore, anymore, anymore
|
| Dianne don’t live here anymore |
