Fiona

Fiona I won't stand here and pretend like I don't care Look me in the eyes kid, say your mother's prayers They taught you how to be a real good woman They taught you how to fight But they did not tell you once about how love can change your life So say it once for the cheap seats So they can understand I'm gonna miss you until I'm with you again Fiona I could tell you about how I won the war It took a few more years than I thought and it cost me so much more But I'd hedge my bet every drop of sweat and every card I drew Were the simple signs of a tortured time That brought me here to you So say it loud for the old man Half deaf from Vietnam I'm gonna miss you until I'm with you again Fiona when you're lonely Do you wonder if you're dead? Like some accident has happened, but they haven't told you yet? Do you ever feel like a leaf at the mercy of the wind? Like a cosmic joke asked to bum a smoke and took off with your friends? So if you dare to wander And it's a stranger's bed you're in I'm gonna miss you until I'm with you again Lover if I'm crazy then shit, that's what it is I'd spend 1000 years in Leavenworth Prison and I'd still feel like this But the rules can change, and it feels so strange To not know what I don't know So I pull you in, just to touch your skin, and to feel what it's like to float And when I finally lose you For the dark is imminent I'm gonna miss you until I'm with you again
