You left your black gloves on my table
You left your dark horse in the stable
Thinking of a way to get you to stay
And I'll promise to fight the wind and waves for you
I'm an owl with tired eyes
I'm the scarecrow in disguise
The absolute con
I would babe sing
When all I want to do is stay inside
And look out the window with you
There was a dead mouse in your arms
That was the moment that you lost your charm
No bear paw sitting in a jar
And your tree, it never grew any leaves
Shake my arms, shake my head
I fell asleep on your cobweb
And I'm turning from all the lights tonight
Saw you in a crowded bar, pale with hungry eyes
