(Lyrics below) Regina Spektor performing 'Patron Saint' at the Sidewalk Cafe in New York, in August 2003, back before she was famous. One of the best Regina songs ever in my opinion. It'll now be on Regina's new album "What We Saw from the Cheap Seats" to be released on May 29 2012!!!!!!

Lyrics:
She's the kind of girl,
Who'll smash herself down in the night,
She's the kind of girl,
Who'll fracture her mind till its light,
She'll break her own heart,
And you know,
She'll break your heart too,
So darling let go of her hand.
She's been skipping days,
Spilling her drinks in the sink
And you know,
She never comin' home,
Never comin' home a-again.
But when, when, when,
She open her eyes, eyes, eyes,
Beyond the chippin' paint,
To the window pane,
Lies, lies, lies,
Her patron saint,
Broken and lame,
And absolutely insane,
For learning that true love exists.
So darling let go of her hand,
Let go of her hand,
Let go of her hand,
Let go of her hand,
Let go of her hand,
Let go of her hand,
Let go of her hand.
You'll be to blame,
For playing this game,
And learning that true love exists.
She's the kind of girl,
Who'll smash herself down in the night,
She's the kind of girl,
Who'll fracture her mind till its light,
She'll break her own heart,
And you know,
She'll break your heart too,
So darling let go of her hand,
Darling let go of her hand.
You'll be to blame for,
Playin' this game,
And learning that true love exists,
Broken and lame,
And know that true love exists,
The pain the pain the pain,
And know that true love exists.
