Happy anniversary heartache from Colorado Springs*
It’ll be a year again on Monday, January 17th
There’s blood underneath my fingernails, there’s whiskey on my breath
I spent last night in cheap motel; 39 dollars did not get me any rest
Cause it’s snowing in Denver and it’s raining down on me
Tonight I’m slow dancin' to another memory
Happy anniversary heartache, I’m sleeping alone again
On the shorter side of the give and take, I’m on the darker side of sin
There’s nothing around here, there’s no love in the atmosphere
Just a cross and a rosary, baby I’m slow dancing
There’s a certain someone in a photograph, she’s gonna haunt me to my grave
Along with the letters, postcards and the roses, don’t forget the love she never gave
Cause Valentines is coming, they swear tonight it’s gonna freeze
I’m out here slow dancing to another memory
Happy anniversary heartache I’m sleeping alone again
On the shorter side of the give and take, I’m on the darker side of sin
There’s nothing around here, there’s no love in the atmosphere
Just a cross and a rosary, baby I’m slow dancing to a memory
