Lyrics
look around
tell me where is that old magic at?
I'm so beaten down
from pullin it out of my hat
and look at me now
nothing but arms up my sleeve
I guess this is where one of us leaves
yeah this is where one of us leaves
and it was me
you couldn't get enough of
our safe word used to be "love"
now it takes all my strength just to speak
while the mascara trails down your cheek
the cheap mascara rolls down your cheek
once in a fairy tale two lovers meet
one on the balcony, one on the street
now one's goin crazy while the other's just gone
and the band....plays.....on
daylight....I'm out on the wire again
balanced....starin into the breeze
and i take one step... with my tiny little feet
it's a long way, long way, long way down to the street
midnight...I'm down on the floor again
searchin.....for a little relief
and I just need one, slip it underneath my tongue
gotta feel it, feel it, feel the medicine
and I'm standing with my hands against my head I'm prayin
Lord give me somethin I can use
don't leave me on this godforsaken night just shakin....
with the crazy headed blues
there's a special place, just below the sky
where broken lovers go to die
will you meet me there.....if I promise to be good?
yeah I promise, promise, promise, promise...KNOCK ON WOOD
and I'm beggin of you sister, won't you take me in now?
cause I got nothin left to lose
don't leave me on this godforsaken doorstep shakin...
with the crazy headed blues
give me somethin I can use
