-------
When a switch turns on she can't stop it.
Feeling all this weight and keeps losing some.
She's thinking about making appointments,
and I'm hoping that she'll just snap out of it.
I sleep over at her apartment,
after i finish my evening shift.
She wants to leave the escarpment,
and she's hoping I can take a hint.
But when we can hear each other, she tells me "it's alright".
Carve your name in the family tree, show me the roots of your bloodline.
I walk lightly when i'm around her,
counting months left on the lease.
I know she's got precious feathers,
so i tip-toe to keep the peace.
We hit the road for a couple weeks,
and it happened again.
You're a poster from the 1950's,
but you lost another 10...
She hates being alone but you know
I might not be here in a couple of years.
Our love was like no other
She turned me inside out.
