[Album: Tallahassee]



Well, guy in a skeleton costume

comes up to the guy in the superman suit

runs through him with a broadsword

I put the television off

Bring all the bright lights up

turn the radio up loud

I don't know why I'm so persuaded

that if I think things through

long enough and hard enough

I'll somehow get to you

but then you came in

and we locked eyes

you kicked the ashtray over

as we came toward each other

stubbed my cigarette out against the west wall

quickly lit another

look at that

would you look at that

we're throwing off sparks

what will I do when I don't have you 

to hold on to in the dark



Yes, everybody's gonna need a witness

everybody's gonna need a little backup

in case the scene gets nasty

you throw the attick window open

and I throw myself all around you

and night comes to Tallahassee

I don't know why it's gotten harder

to keep myself away

I thought I'd finally beat the feeling back

it all came back today

And then we fell down

and we locked arms

we knocked the dresser over

as we rolled across the floor

I don't mean when I tell you

that I don't love you anymore

look at that, would you look at that

the way ceiling starts to swerve

what will I do when I don't have you 

when I finally get what I deserve
