Across the verglas of my dreams
I watch your car careen
On the blacktop, spinning steel
You're sleeping at the wheel
Can't stop you hit the wall
I don't have the wherewithal
She looked at me so crookedly
Spoke to me so brokenly
Bowed her head
And then she gave one last coquettish wave
It was just the way I loved her
I hear your broken chords
They fall in ragged shards
O my squandered star
Shot full of holes
And lamented by saccharine hearts and steel guitar
She looked at me so crookedly
Spoke to me so brokenly
Bowed her head
And then she gave one last coquettish wave
It was just the way I loved her
But I never touched her
She looked at me so crookedly
Spoke to me so brokenly
She looked at me so bookishly
It was just the way I loved her
I never touched her
