our separation seems forever
i'll do it if it's what you like
go take your bags to new york city
call me when your plane arrives
i'll feed the children
wash the dishes
i'll keep the house lookin' nice
well
don't you worry now
everything's gonna be all right
it's been snowin' this october turnin' grass into grain
do you see much past your hotel window friday nights with your gang?
i can only hope that things were different and darlin' do you feel the same
every time you're drinkin' wine in the rain?
oh
oh
all you said you've seen is my face in a magazine
my hair slicked back and clean or so it seemed
and now anyone can say that a man shouldn't live this way
so take your pretty poison right into the grave
we'll never change
i sold our house
the 3rd december
we're livin' where our feet done land
and the babies screams
they might get to heaven
but they're buried far 'neath the sand
all i know's my minds done thinkin'
my mouths doin' what it can
to keep the rhythm and put a nickel back in your hand
oh
oh
all you said you've seen is my face in a magazine
my hair slicked back and clean or so it seemed
and now anyone can say that a man shouldn't live this way
so take your pretty poison right into the grave
we dated naked out in the rain
we are okay to the pain
they'll never change
oh no
no
no
no
