Karen's Blues

You arrived alive in the Spring
And for a reckless little while, I took you in
It was well known you were born to lose
Born to be back
Born to use me

And all that summer we played a game
And I knew that you'd leave and you'd said you'd stay
Well Autumn's blue came and wrecked my heart
You wretched little wind, you do blow hard

And no, no, no goes the sparrow
My feet, feet, feet are on my road
No I can't, go back to where I am from
For all that, life's not so terrible

Karen where have you been?
For just a little while on the street of Lexington
Long hair sitting in the sun
You were so young, so full of devastation

And no, no, no goes the sparrow
My feet, feet, feet are on my road
No I can't, go back to where I'm from
For all that, life is not so terrible
Oh sweet, sweet, sweet is the sparrow
My feet, feet, feet are on my road
No I can't, go back to where I'm from
For all that, life is not so terrible
