See What Happens Next

I lost my my finger tips
I left them in your hair
I tossed you once too much
Now the cops are coming in
I'm not the only lover you had from time to time
You kept me as a name
The names all slipped your mind
Oh they slipped your mind

The mirror or the glass
You watch them going by
The truth was always there
Hiding in the light
Down the garden path
Laying in the thorns
A tired old lover was waiting to be born
But you were no one's mother
Or not yet anyway
There's far too much of you
You can't give away

It's alright
Just a trick of light
Don't pay no mind
Happens all the time
Then it just keeps happening

In the morning I still think of you on different paths
Drifting off to sleep getting sober in the bath
Alice says you cry
I remember you that way
Laying in my arms
Watch the traffic danced for you
From the sky above my room
I stay above it all
Until it's time to go hear your footsteps down the hall
An echo getting lost looking for itself
If you were hard to love I could never tell
So if you see my finger tips
I'll gladly take them back
To remember who I am if it ain't too late for that

It's alright
Just a trick of light
Don't pay no mind
Happens all the time

If you come around here
Or you're just passing through
You can look me up if you want to
But don't feel like you have to
Oh let's see what happens now
