Lyrics:
I dig her like a grave
for someone that I could not save
From far above the bar
I tried so hard
Spending time and money in your mind
(Hey Carrie Ann)
My memory’s a sewer
and the streets are full of milk
and I wouldn’t spend five minutes on the moon, the view cannot compete
with my view of you
Your Madison skirt won’t fool me
Your blue collar shirt won’t fool me
I’ve given peace to winter women, I want to fish where you go swimming
You’re not fooling me
I want to wanted
I want to blamed
For breaking the river and taking your name
