Woman of the Phoenix |
| The sound of the lover’s song |
| And I’ve dreamed all the dreams that the wayward girl dreams |
| In a thousand places gone |
| Dallas was my late night out |
| Radcliffe’s served to roust me out |
| And Houston lay like Cleveland with the color removed |
| All I ever wanted |
| Was to wander and be wooed |
| Like a Woman of the Phoenix |
| A welcomed Waterloo |
| I’ve seen the sun blaze the breasts of the countryside |
| I’ve seen her huddled in a winter freeze |
| And I’ve run cross paths of a thousand lives |
| Among the cactus and the white birch trees |
| Avloc ran a waterfront bar |
| Vito, he was the king of thieves |
| And Michael was a rock 'n roll hood from the Odessa plains |
| Now, all of them were my kind |
| Wild and damn near free |
| But, a Woman of the Phoenix is the medicine they need |
