whenever light shines down on misery it can only make things worse on the day we met she burned so bright i was lucky as a gypsy curse well she was blushing like a wedding day with her eyes so sharp and black and her gentle little smile was the color of blood and she s never ever coming back now let me tell you i ve been up since a quarter to three and i ve been pacing back and forth through the hall i ve been thinking bout the first time she took my hand and i don t understand it at all whatever hopes i once kept safe and sound in a locker underneath my bed whatever thoughts i once kept to myself are drowneded out and dead because she sounded like a symphony when she simply said my name and the long blue days that once were hers are long now just the same in the hallway hangs a photograph on her hand a diamond ring she mailed it with a little note she nailed it to the edge of my wing i have burned out every sympathy and the house is still and black but now i ve seen my misery and she s never ever coming back
