Lyrics Circles And X's - Lucinda Williams

Circles And X's

In the doorway soaking wet
It’s raining cats and dogs
There’s nothing for us to repair
The fire needs more logs
You managed to crack a smile
The sky is big and open
You stay for just a little a while
The vows have all been broken
Circles and x’s by your name
Day after day a blank change
Some things stay the same
Circles and x’s by your name
Nothing left to be sorry for
I still stand aside
I see you off across the floor
With your hand around the doorknob
Your head down the drunken part
The Chevy decides to stall
Unmistake the inner rope
That’s struck in, in my heart
You turn around to wave goodbye
You look at me and linger
Morning hears a sigh
The sunlight reflects off the silver of your finger
Circles and x’s by your name
Day after day a blank change
Some things stay the same
Circles and x’s by your name
Circles and x’s by your name
Day after day a blank change
Some things stay the same
Circles and x’s by your name
Some things stay the same
Circles and x’s by your name
