Big Black Car |
| You were a phonograph, I was a kid |
| I sat with an ear close, just listening |
| I was there when the rain tapped her way down your face |
| You were a miracle, I was just holding your space |
| Well time has a way of throwing it all in your face |
| The past, she is haunted, the future is laced; |
| Heartbreak, you know, drives a big black car |
| Swear I was in the back seat, just minding my own |
| And through the glass, the corn crows come like rain |
| They won’t stay, they won’t stay |
| For too long now |
| This could be all that we know |
| Of love and all |
| Well you were a dancer and I was a rag |
| The song in my head, well, was all that I had |
| Hope was a letter I never could send |
| Love was a country we couldn’t defend |
| And through the carnival we watch them go round and round |
| All we knew of home was just a sunset and some clowns |
| Well you were a magazine, I was a plain Jane |
| Just walking the sidewalks all covered in rain |
| Love to just get into some of your stories |
| Me and all of my plain Jane glory |
| Just me and all of my plain Jane glory |
