He so old today he tried
To remember how it felt to be five
And a half at the edge of a sandbox
Shipwrecks, castles, and warlocks
Secretly hoping for chickenpox
So you could stay in home from school
Wouldn’t that be cool
And you wouldn’t have to get it when you’re older
He so old today he thought about
All that stuff he shouldn’ta bought
Like that shitty wind-up radio
Nothing like the one he made in ’42
With his dad, a 1st world war veteran
Or that sinister cat
Why did I buy that
I was right, it didn’t make me happy
There came a time when he saw his life as he grew older
As pictures laid out in the dust
Put em all together one stitch at a time
A little out of line saying
Can you remember that day
There were thirteen crows on our apple tree
You said, “Tell me whatca think about that”
He so old he looked around
Imagining his world as upside-down
Books falling onto the ceiling
Huge step over the doorframe
A daughter who would never say his name
A son who wouldn’t call
Winter walking at the mall
Lucky that’s not now it happened
He so old he took my hand
Said, “Hunny, I’ll have you understand”
There’s only two ways in this world to be
You’ve got to be kind and you’ve got to be free
I didn’t always do that so take it from me
I have no complaints
I’ll take it up with the Saints
If in the end they let me into Heaven

Think Of Me

Think of me once in the daytime
Think of me twice at night
Think of me while you’re sleeping
Can’t you see
Can’t you see what you’ve done to me
Bridge under troubled water
Door slam never had the key
I click my heals three times
Can’t you see
Can’t you see how it feels to me
Do you do the things you do
When you haven’t got a soul to tell em to
Little white lie, little white lie
I forgot how to be
You forgot about me
Think of me once in the daytime
Call my name out twice at night
Dream of me while you’re sleeping
Can’t believe
Can’t believe what you’ve done to me

Well we had a little fun but was it worth
The heartache and the heartbreak
All the stolen time
Walk into a train wreck knowing all the time
Carnage and wreckage
And gruesome images
Every time that you came onto me
Don’t need to think about it now
Who have I been
I pulled the wool over my eyes
Why am I surprised
Oh I should have known
Oh I should have known and I
Came down hard and
Came down fast
There ain’t any part of this that’s gonna last
Change my vows
Change my dues
Spend a little time in another girls‘ shoes
Have I told you that I’ve been feeling scared
Worrying I was lying
Faking not trying
Afraid of having to face what I’ve found
Haven’t been the kind of girl that I want around
I pulled the wool over my eyes
Why am I surprised
Oh I should have known
Oh I should have known

O Rainy Day
Where do you go
When the West wind wild and wicked
Blows clouds in full of snow
Head to your harbour
Do you set your sails for home
You can paint the landscape later
Once the chill's gone from your bones
O Rainy Day
On a summer afternoon
With the sun so bright and livid
It’s mockery to you
Run to the water’s edge
Your blue breeze disappears
You can paint horizons later
Mixing pigment in your tears
O Rainy Day
Will you watercolour me
I’m feeling pale and portly
Only rain will rescue me
Drop by drop in orange
Oar by oar in blue
You can paint the surface later
Rainy day see me through

How was your day
How I’ve missed you
Come to bed with me
Turn out the light
Tomorrow morning
I am keeping you
Your name in every breath and I say
Oo
Your fingers at my breast and I say
Oo
Will I ever know you
Babe it’s late
You had me worried
Tell me what’s on your mind
I toss and turn
Something isn’t right
You won’t say anything
When the cops show up
Oo
Sixteen years don’t mean much
Oo
Did I ever know you?
What if I stayed?
What if I waited?
What if you get off Scott free?
We could pretend
We could forget it
Lord I can’t think straight
Now your face
In every memory
I don’t know what it looks like
Was it real?
Were we happy?
I’m selling everything
When the cops show up
Oo
Sixteen years don’t mean much
Oo
I’m selling everything
