Wendy

Wendy left me all alone No postcard or telephone Wintertime down by the beach In a jukebox bar way out of reach She liked Tom Waits and the poet's hat Sixties Kinks and Kerouac Through the night her tailights fade Her selection never played I don't know I don't know I don't know why Checkin' the tears and the light in your eyes I don't know I don't know I don't know If my little baby will make it alone Wendy took me with a smile Country lips and Bacall style Through Tangiers or to Bombay Her self-portrait in the USA I don't know I don't know I don't know why Checkin' the tears and the light in your eyes I don't know I don't know I don't know If my little baby will make it alone Dreams Dyin' slowly We don't want to be alone Dreams Dark and holy We don't want to be alone Thinking the things that I can't erase Hole in my heart and a gun in my face Feeling the things that I can't describe I don't know I don't know I don't know why Dreams Dyin' slowly We don't want to be alone Dreams Dark and holy We don't want to be alone Wendy Let down Wendy Get down I don't know I don't know I don't know why
