In the middle of her confession
He comes over and holds her hand I wake up, she is crying I guess he was here again Chorus: Evie's tears are never going to dry Evie's secret tears burn this bed she comes to only when it's light We met in a lonely summer Two survivors of paradise She ran up when I first touched her Now she wakes me every night Chorus Faithless girl You've been dreaming Staring up your face is what we fear OK, now I'm listening You're not mine and he's not here Now I'm listening You're not mine and he's not here In the middle of Evie's garden In a simple iron chair Wind's blowing and she is singing Begs the moon to disappear Chorus (with |

A barefoot whore
Walking by a famous clock Against her door Waiting for the chimes to start Chorus: Can't sink this town Pull the gates and bring it down I'd gladly drown and let you leave me lonely She pulled the cork On a night like this she never works I said, |

You oughta see your face
You oughta hear your voice Last time I was here I wouldn't turn around You oughta lock that door Somebody might get in Didn't I teach you that This perfect world So blue I can't begin to say This perfect world I know I never should have gone away But I still deserve to say goodbye No matter what I've done I see her in your face Hear her in your voice Last time I was here They found her in the lake You oughta see my scar You think I'm made of stone Didn't you tell me that This perfect world So blue I can't begin to say This perfect world They say that soon I will be gone away But I still deserve to say goodbye No matter what I've done Now I've gone around it's far too late And these pills won't even let me cry No one knows you even when you're gone But I still deserve to say goodbye No matter what I've done No matter what I've done You oughta see your face You oughta hear your voice Lock this after me |

When I woke up
I was already evicted And when you say lie Do you think I believe anything? Cold again Cold again Walking over Brooklyn bridge Cold again Cold again Hey, Miss Liberty, where have you been? When you walked up I was looking at the wrong life And now I'm locked out I will be back in for the (?morning?) spots Cold again Cold again Back alone before the end Cold again Cold again Do you really think I'd turn you in? Cold again Cold again Walking over Brooklyn bridge Cold again Cold again Hey, Miss Liberty, where have you been? |

Lovers Cry
One last kiss by the edge they're hand in hand Two lovers stop their hearts Better than to be apart They had run from a father to the highest bridge Holding together as they jumped in Lovers lie On the hill where they once lay side by side Two lovers stop their hearts Better than to be apart She was rich he was common but she wouldn't say no Lyin' together on the rocks below They had run from a father to the highest bridge Holding together as they jumped in Lovers cry One last kiss by the edge they're hand in hand Toe lovers stop their hearts Better than to be apart Lover cry, Lovers cry, Lovers cry Lover cry, Lovers cry, Lovers cry Lover cry, Lovers cry, Lovers cry Lover cry, Lovers cry, Lovers cry- |

Though you've gone away
I play your favorite song Feel the blue and gold With your dark glasses on I always think I see you Across the avenue Walking by where I lost you It's all I ever do You just walked away We'll need tonight, OK? Going against the light Run down in front of me Chorus: I always think I see you Across the avenue Someday I'll come to meet you On the other side Across the avenue X 2 Though you've gone away I wear your favorite shirt Sitting in the sun By the lottery lines Chorus |

A red suitcase she'll never miss
A leather coat he used to wear Thinking tough, looking tired With momma's money and daddy's ring Chorus: He's gone like the water down to NYC Sleeping on the 802 Along this river, running down He's gone like the water down the deep hole drain disappering in the city Twenty-four and growing pale Growing up, coming back Drew a face on the ticket stub With mamma's hands, and daddy's pen Chorus Talk all night, cook all day Looking for a new place to stay Thinking hard, looking bad With mama's dollar in daddy's coat Chorus |

Dolores was her middle name
She read the book and everything Now I know how old I am Have you ever seen that film? Talking to a hotel mirror with my glasses off Now you know just what he's crying about Dolores was her middle name Dangling from a silver chain Where'd you learn to talk that way? I look like James Mason's ghost. Talking to a friend after school but you don't see That she's really looking right at me, yeah, yeah, yeah Dolores was her middle name And now her mother's wondering If I could see my wrinkled face Paint her lovely toenails red Writing all my problems in a secret little book Now I know just what he should've done. Talking to me like I'm just a little late Now you know just what he's talking about. Dolores was her middle name X 2 |

In the middle of Evie's garden
Was a rock she could never move Worn away by a faithful handtill No one knows the date Chorus: Bring back the rain We'll go walking Bring back the wind Like you do Of the flowers in Evie's garden One would never go out of bloom Planted over a well forgotten Opened by the moon. Chorus Bring back the rain To Evie's garden I'm at the gate Looking through In the middle of Evie's garden Was a rock she could never move Nearly buried in a night bloom tango Pale and smooth as skin |

Did you take your mother's name
So you could sleep easily She took you back too late And now you never even call Did you take that money drawer While she was praying They said you disappeared Just like water down a drain Chorus: Why'd you call me? Must be back Disappointed man Where've you been Hide yourself so well In this city Disappointed man Did you sell your father's ring So you could stay one more night It shone like his glass eye In the worn velvet case Did you fill this hired room with guilty words Your white piano hands flutter like poison birds Chorus |

You can really fall
Wake up in a ruined house Wrapped up in a torn down curtain And when I get to hell Will the lovely girls come down To the banks of that red red river I can hear the laughs when they find I've fallen down again I can hear the laughs and it hurts so bad I have to smile You can take a lot Put back not a thing Still come home looking thinner And when I get to Oz Will the lovely witch come down Kiss my pale bleeding brow I can hear the laughs when they find I've fallen down again I can hear the laughs and it hurts so bad I have to smile |
