Goddamn your breath, fuck the hair on the back of my neck. They have conspired against me. Smoke curls from your lips. I can read signals but I never learned that many.
I have regrets, a list as long as my face, but keep talking. I'll give your partner some space to tell me how great you are. Keep your alibi straight so you can leave when you want to.
If good men get their just rewards, I'll fold my hands and I'll ask the Lord to let true love conquer petty things: a father's words, a diamond ring. But for now, you're parked out of Her holy sight at his mortgaged home every Friday night. I wish I knew the way I felt before you were with someone else.
I wish I knew the way I felt before you were with someone else.
