Crystal
She took her time to say it, she had to delay it as she waited for the walls to fade
To measure it and weigh it she had to take away all the silly little games they played
A little of regret on a chain around her neck, the best place for a galaxy of pain
Got to cut the losses, or just the loser, pray that things will never be the same
She could write a novel of the nasty and the noble of how he sat and took it on the chin
But he was still not free, and now she could see she’d never get the lid off that tin
A little of regret on a chain around her neck, the best place for a galaxy of pain
Got to cut the losses, or just the loser, pray that things will never be the same
She left a little tear on the window of the bus
When the driver dropped her off near nowhere
This place is good, as good as any other, call my mother just say I'm OK
She left a lot of years on the window of that bus, a long lifetime of weight
This place is good, as good as any other for a lover on a newborn day
A lover on a newborn day, a lover on a newborn day
It’s another kind of time, she doesn’t have to climb, for him she’s out of sight and mind
Checking every ring that she did the right thing, check again between the lines
A little of respect was too much to expect, no shelter from his insane rain
Got to cut the losses, or just the loser and make sure things will never be the same
I’m throwing my blues away there was nothing I betrayed
And this place is good, what this lover doesn’t need is another to show the way
I’m making my own way, can you hear the birdsong day
This place is good, where I can be another be a lover of a newborn day
A lover on a newborn day a lover on a newborn day
To measure it and weigh it she had to take away all the silly little games they played
A little of regret on a chain around her neck, the best place for a galaxy of pain
Got to cut the losses, or just the loser, pray that things will never be the same
She could write a novel of the nasty and the noble of how he sat and took it on the chin
But he was still not free, and now she could see she’d never get the lid off that tin
