| A sharp kick in the head, was all she said.
|
| Stop talking sideways, was all she said.
|
| A smart move into fortune, was all she said.
|
| A smart move into fortune, seemed over our head.
|
| Thank you for the good time, was all she said.
|
| Black rose in my pocket, was all she left.
|
| If I sit down and listen to the radio
|
| these are words that I’ve heard before.
|
| Heaven knows, what will become of us,
|
| I wouldn’t say it, that’s for sure.
|
| (And she went) Sharp kick in the head,
|
| (Oh no) Was all she said.
|
| (She demands) Stop talking sideways,
|
| (Oh no) was all she said.
|
| (And she went) Smart move into fortune,
|
| (I still know) went over our heads.
|
| (And she knows) The black rose in my pocket,
|
| (Back there) is all but dead.
|
| Well I sit down and listen to the radio,
|
| and I don’t believe these words are true.
|
| Heaven knows, what will become of us,
|
| you always said it just takes two.
|
| And she waits, heart and body and soul,
|
| now I know it’s time to let her go.
|
| But she waits until I’m almost there,
|
| then she says that she had never cared.
|
| Still she waits in heart and body and soul,
|
| and I know this time I won’t let go.
|
| But she waits until I’m almost there,
|
| then she says that she has never cared.
|
| And I wait in heart and body and soul,
|
| and I know she’ll never let me go.
|
| But I wait until she’s almost there,
|
| and I ask her just to say she cared.
|
| But she waits in heart and body and soul,
|
| And I know this time she’ll let me go.
|
| And I wait until I’m almost there,
|
| then I tell myself she didn’t care. |
