Some Streets Lead Nowhere

I can't tell you where I've been now darling

There are hawks inside my head

And every smile and every good thing are picked at 'til

they are dead

"I love you," was all she said

That's all she said

From that old street to that new house

To those beautiful hills inside your blouse

To the rain that kept falling and those years off the

rails

When we smiled like 2 sailors with holes in our sails

When I turned to a coma with a black hole in my chest

When a kiss was the cure and I'd save my breath

When you'd walk to the bedroom and I'd fall on the couch

If I wasted your beauty I'll ignite it somehow

'Cause a dream can be cruel when it haunts you like this

With your eyes like a deer

And the words from your lips

What I'm trying to say is I was afraid that you'd leave

So I slept with my failures and I started to grieve

I started to grieve

I started to grieve
