A Necklace for a Girl, A Dream for a Woman |
You were like a piece of modern art
Thrown out of the back of a car
I caught you in my arms before you hit the sidewalk
Now I can see how they talk
Myself and you in third person
But I guess I have to turn the tide and go on
Every day we have been illustrating
The pictures inside our heads that's been fading
And I've been starting a countdown
Longing for the queen of hearts to visit my town
But until then, at least I know where we've been
A bracelet and not a single tear
Is what precedes and introduces another year
Just a necklace and the sound of a dream
Is what succeeds another day when I can't scream
