Doomed Love Affair
Living like a crook in parking lots
Trying to get my thoughts into jars
Labelled A through Zed
For a systematic analysis
And we are two
Vagrants on a train through the Midwest
I'm connected to you
By tendons, bones and veins what a mess
It's getting colder now
And your soft red sweater calls my name out loud
It's not over till it's over
And I can't go through with it
And you never knew
For the longest time you were on my mind
And I'm finally through
Wasting all your time
God, it's been rough these past few weeks
My room is a mess and the ceiling leaks
I shouldn't have dragged you into this
Doomed love affair
Doomed love affair
Doomed love affair
Doomed love affair
Fluorescent shopping malls at night
And I miss your 3am phone calls
Since you left, I left broken glass on the floor
And I cut myself
And blood just knows
How to get through the veins to the heart
And so it goes
It all seemed preordained from the start
Love disappears in the wind like smoke
My room is a mess and the mirror broke
I shouldn't have dragged you into this
Doomed love affair
Doomed love affair
Doomed love affair
Doomed love affair
