"Turnstile Casanova" lyrics
"Turnstile Casanova"
This ain't right, crying all night
My mind's broken all to pieces
She says she will, then she says she won't
My confusion just increases
Now she's gone
And the world moves on
I thought I was wise
I thought I was brave
I thought I was strong
She's up and away, shares a duvet
With a Turnstile Casanova
I tried to plead, she said no need
When it's over, darling, it's over
Now she's gone
And the world moves on
I thought I was wise
I thought I was brave
I thought I was strong
Stalking each other like a pair of foxes
Who needs who, who ticks who's boxes
Who needs the headlines, who needs the drama
Living your life in Cinerama
But who gets to stir the stew?
She's cut and dried, dewy eyed
For an overnight sensation
There in a flash, dash for the cash
And a tabloid reputation
Now she's gone
And the world moves on
I thought I was wise
I thought I was brave
I thought I was strong

Van Morrison - "Raglan Road" On Raglan Road on an Autumn Day,
I saw her first and knew
That her dark hair would weave a snare
That I may one day rue.

Along the enchanted way
And I said let grief be...
Blitzen Trapper - "Hesher In The Rain" Dream sky, just a hesher in the rain
Daydream summer lost alone in Spain
Was it real? Is it over now?
The girl was ghostly
Long and proud
Black leather, he wore denim with white seams
Dream drummer...
The Avett Brothers - "Orion's Belt" Dead heading east to west
Taking my memories, leaving this place
Earning my heartache, holding it tight
Owning my history outright
Like mine was the best
Everybody thinks they know everyone else...
