A red scarf that she wore, a rinse in her hair, A blister, an undersized shoe, Her name on a tag that can't be washed off, A place at a table for two. I think she wore red, I believe she wore black, Any colour you can mention except blue -- Any number of colours under the sun I won't be revealing to you. I can tell you it's final, I know it's concluded, I can tell you for certain we're through I can give you the names and the places and the dates, But what could it mean to someone like you? So don't come and visit, don't give me no joke, Don't ask me no how does it go, For it goes as fast as a chicken with no head, And lord time goes by so slow. Some secrets of love you take to your bed And there's some that you take to your grave Well I took mine to a new address, Where I took my rest at the end of the day. Now all of my stuff is spread out on the floor, An unmade bed, a drink or two And I'm packing and unpacking personal things That fail to remind me of you. You can rub it off, you can scrape it off. You can drink it off, you can burn it off.

I thought this was a good place to start Looking out on my treeless plain The good Lord has our best interests at heart, He's making an effort and starting again I just wanted a plaything The only good one's a dead ringer for the real thing I just wanted a plaything, the right way […]
Let's not talk about love That's something you feel for a dog or a cat And you can tell him all your troubles And that puppy dog won't answer back You may shut your shutters, You may draw your blinds and run But you'll never find, no you'll never find your place in the sun, […]
Too late to call, I walk the floor Reheat the food I didn't touch the night before The TV's on, but not for long I'm not the good old boy you knew no, you got a different one Pack up your troubles and give them all to me That way you could lose them, I […]
