Leave the Wine, Down the Ribbons
And she twirled her ring when she said
That "I had famous friends
But they went down the ribbons and left
And frayed the ends
Of my hopeful twenties
And my dreams of the east"
And so I chase her streaks down silent weeks
'Cause she keeps her hand just out of reach
And I drove past a victim's tribute
When he died there was nothing to do
But tie flowers on the fences in twos
And watch the wind
Blow the things that I knew
Through the long afternoon
It's why I lie in a bind for you
And I'll drink less wine for you
And I'll be on time for you
Ooh ooh ooh
That "I had famous friends
But they went down the ribbons and left
And frayed the ends
Of my hopeful twenties
And my dreams of the east"
And so I chase her streaks down silent weeks
'Cause she keeps her hand just out of reach
And I drove past a victim's tribute
When he died there was nothing to do
But tie flowers on the fences in twos
And watch the wind
Blow the things that I knew
Through the long afternoon
It's why I lie in a bind for you
And I'll drink less wine for you
And I'll be on time for you
Ooh ooh ooh
