Lyrics

Here she comes...

I almost sank without a song
A girl I used to love once said that line's too long
and It doesn't rhyme and it comes out wrong
Here she comes again

You tell her that you need her like a desert needs rain
You tell her that you love her like a poet loves pain
But you're already leaving on a north bound train
Here she comes again here she comes again

That tired old dream's been around for a while
It's ragged round the edges from too many miles
It's attached to nothing, like an old whore's smile
Here she comes again here she comes again

She's a photo of your children in a silver frame
And late in the night you forget their names
But no one ever promised you an honest game
Here she comes again here she comes again

She's a funny little game that we play called life
Where the wound seems to heal around the knife
Still looking for tomorrow in every woman's eyes
Here she comes again here she comes again

When home's a friendly blanket on another woman's floor, every breath's a question mark that's holding out for more
That makes you take another step towards another fall
here she comes again

Your bones are creaking like an old lover's stairs
You watch her dress and brush her hair
She takes you back to where you used to live, back when you used to care
Here she comes again here she comes again
