Sadly I woke up in Connecticut
Some nightingales out deck old Murphy bed
And the wall-to-wall shag loneliness
Was more fuel on the burning mess
I hope you saw the flames before they died
Your brother is a friend I'll hate to lose
He said you're somewhere down in Newport News
I don't blame him for being vague
I guess I would have done the same
But if someone's gonna bleed it won't be you
If you needed the heat from another light
That's a metaphor I believe
But if it makes no difference to you
The way you get what you need
Oh tell me why my love was easy to leave
My love was so easy to leave
I caught a dragon bus to Chinatown
I bought some knockoff shoes and knocked around
And I stood where Prince meets Lafayette
I won't forgive and I won't forget
But I'd kiss your ass to kiss your ass again
If you needed the heat from another light
That's a metaphor I believe
But if it makes no difference to you
The way you get what you need
Oh tell me why my love was easy to leave
My love was so easy to leave
Let's tie a knot in this
If not I know the poison will soak all the way through
I swear on your soul I'll forego any right to stick it back at you
ย
If you needed the heat from another light
That's a metaphor I believe
But if it makes no difference to you
The way you get what you need
Oh tell me why my love was easy to leave
My love was so easy to leave
My love was so easy to leave
My love was so easy to leave
