Wendy left me all alone

No postcard or telephone

Wintertime down by the beach

In a jukebox bar way out of reach



She liked Tom Waits and the poet's hat

Sixties Kinks and Kerouac

Through the night her tailights fade

Her selection never played



I don't know I don't know I don't know why

Checkin' the tears and the light in your eyes

I don't know I don't know I don't know

If my little baby will make it alone



Wendy took me with a smile

Country lips and Bacall style

Through Tangiers or to Bombay

Her self-portrait in the USA

I don't know I don't know I don't know why

Checkin' the tears and the light in your eyes

I don't know I don't know I don't know

If my little baby will make it alone



Dreams 

Dyin' slowly

We don't want to be alone

Dreams

Dark and holy

We don't want to be alone



Thinking the things that I can't erase

Hole in my heart and a gun in my face

Feeling the things that I can't describe

I don't know I don't know I don't know why



Dreams 

Dyin' slowly

We don't want to be alone

Dreams

Dark and holy

We don't want to be alone



Wendy

Let down

Wendy

Get down

I don't know I don't know I don't know why, etc.
