"Shelley" lyrics

"Shelley"

People say Shelley won't come to no good
Maybe that girl's misunderstood
Wonderin' what this world's all about
And why there's a flame she can never put out
Someone got lucky once I suppose
Drunk on the scent of a midnight rose
Gave her somethin' she'd never felt before
Now Shelley can't love you no more

Folks say Shelley holds her head too high
Starin' way beyond that sunset sky
What's on her mind is anyone's guess
If she's outta line well she couldn't care less
She's always gonna be the face you adore
No Shelley can't love you no more
Shelley can't love you no more

If she never comes or don't wanna call
Brother you're on your own
If you're going to make a fool of yourself
Might as well do it alone
You might as well do it alone

Shelley's got a heart like a hurricane
She'll leave you stranded in the killin' rain
Tell her she's the one that you've been dreaming about
She'll run you around, turn you inside out
It's never gonna happen but you still pretend
Your pain's so real but you don't want it to end
Take another breath that's what you waitin' for
Shelley can't love you no more

What's going through her mind
What's going on in her mind
No Shelley can't love you no more

When it's all done, when you're lookin' back
Tryin' to make sense of it all
Shelley's long gone and countin' the stars
Catchin' them as they fall

People say Shelley won't come to no good
Maybe that girl's misunderstood
Wonderin' what this world's all about
And why there's a flame she can never put out
She's always gonna be the face you adore
Shelley can't love you no more

What's going through her mind
What's going through her mind
No Shelley can't love you no more
No Shelley can't love you no more
No Shelley can't love you no more
Shelley can't love you no more
