Ophelia
Boards on the window, mail by the door
What would anybody leave so quickly for?
Ophelia
Mmm, where have you gone?
The old neighborhood just ain't the same
Nobody knows just what it became
Ophelia
Tell me, what went wrong
Was it something that somebody said?
Mama, I know we broke the rule
Was somebody up against the law?
Honey, you know I'd die for you
Ashes of laughter, the coast is clear
Why do the best things always disappear?
Like Ophelia
Please, knock on my door
Was it something that somebody said?
Honey, you know we broke the rules
Was somebody up against the law?
Honey, you know I'd die for you
They got your number, scared and runnin'
But I'm still waiting for the second coming
Of Ophelia
Mmm-hmm, come back home
Mmm-hmm
What would anybody leave so quickly for?
Ophelia
Mmm, where have you gone?
The old neighborhood just ain't the same
Nobody knows just what it became
Ophelia
Tell me, what went wrong
Was it something that somebody said?
Mama, I know we broke the rule
Was somebody up against the law?
Honey, you know I'd die for you
Ashes of laughter, the coast is clear
Why do the best things always disappear?
Like Ophelia
Please, knock on my door
Was it something that somebody said?
Honey, you know we broke the rules
Was somebody up against the law?
Honey, you know I'd die for you
They got your number, scared and runnin'
But I'm still waiting for the second coming
Of Ophelia
Mmm-hmm, come back home
Mmm-hmm
