lyrics

I picked up your dress, you left the house a mess
I guess it's just what I would expect from you
It's strange to think they'll all stay flat,
but sometimes God says that is that --
though I can't find what that had to do with you

And I picture you now with a halo of hair,
that you get when you're drunk and I love it and stare
You enchant me, but the magic has gone away
and I long for you to come back to me

You call me an asshole, I'll tell you that's fine
it's just what happens when you drink too much wine
You say life's a joke, and we are all the punchline
I say that's dark, and a little unfair
You tell me I'm a writer, so why the fuck do I care?
and you were right -- and I was just happy to be there

And I picture you now with a halo of hair,
that you get when you're drunk and I love it and stare
You enchant me, but the magic has gone away
and I long for you to come back to me

I prayed to every God I knew existed, and even the ones that did not
but all of them resisted, said they liked what you got
And I guess it's true that you were in on what none of us knew
in your dark green dress, and your high heeled shoes,
yes -- that is how I'll remember you

I picked up your dress -- you left the house I mess,
I guess it's just what I would expect from you
