One last time from Freddy's joint

we drove out to lover's point

shared our last kiss eye to eye

Spoke of tender times long past

said they weren't meant to last

too many different dreams to satisfy



She wants

new shoulders to cry on

new backseats to lie on

and she always gets her way

She wants to see other guys

get lost in other eyes

baby's in the black books

yes she's in the black books today



I've yet to find a dreary bar

where whispers don't drift from afar

about her wild and wicked ways

The hardest truths don't have a why

often true love will just die

and leave a grief to haunt

the lonely nights and days



She wants

new shoulders to cry on

new backseats to lie on

and she always gets her way

She wants to hurt other guys

put tears in other eyes 

baby's in the black books

yes she's in the black books today



She wants to hurt other guys

put tears in other eyes

Baby's in the black books

yes she's in the black books today
