Changed my name to promise you, yeah
Dying inside because I want to, yeah
Didn't I say I wanted to, yeah
Honey I'd changed before you, yeah
28 years are coming to end
The rain chased me down the gully again
Now I'm higher than anyone here
And dirt ain't nothing on me, yeah
But she's gone
But she's gone
But she's gone
But she's gone
But-but-but, baby I swear it, I wanted to call
But on my way 'round I happened to fall
She's a MUA at Carnegie Hall
In her vanity mirror, we're losing it all
Well, we shacked up swift abandonment way
Catch sweet rain inside a beret
In it, I'm reflecting all of the day
And I will fade in the night, yeah
Will you apologize for the remainder of your life?
Do you accept the charges?
I promise you, I'll promise to, yeah
Well, now she curls up with her favorite son
He's the ugliest man in heaven for one
As long as there's nobody fooling me there
Then dirt ain't nothing on me, yeah
Yeah, they threw me out like I was a wedding bouquet
Now I can't quite remember what I had to say
'Til I get higher than anyone here
And I will fade in the night, yeah
In the charmless morning
I promise to be gone
I almost felt the feeling
That I wanted to, I wanted to, yeah
Ah, ah
You thought I was here
But I'm further than the sun, sun
Ah
Silent as the feeling
That I've promised you, I promise you, yeah
Well, I changed my name to promise you, yeah (but she's gone)
It's easier than making apologies, yeah (but she's gone)
Now I'm higher than anyone here (but she's gone)
And dirt ain't nothing on me, yeah
