Sorry Blue Eyes

from Wind​/​Water by Copper Dalton

/

lyrics

"Live", I said, as I pulled the door shut
And lost my place, I can't take no more but
A better picture still hangs in a frame

I swear I won't forget your name
All the good times we had planned ahead
You swear you're sorry
That it couldn't turn out that way

I hope you're doing fine
While I'm stuck here working overtime
I hope you're having a good life
Sometimes it hurts like hell
But it's probably just as well
That I let you go and never have to know
Your sorry blue eyes

From our house we built upon the hill
Where cold winds moan, because you live there still
Forgiving is hard
I wish I could just throw it away

And when shadows dance behind those walls
With fingertips caressing soft
I can't deny
Girl, it leaves a bitter taste

Your sorry blue eyes
With your candlelight smile
And your bullwhip charm
You know you didn't need long
To give a turn of your knife
Or to foster a disguise
But why do you want to drag me all the way down
When you only have to say
"So long, goodbye"?

Silk stockings, dressed in Queen Anne's Lace
With black garters running down your legs
A lampost ladies money ain't better than yours

Left living in this basement room
With memories I'll be forgetting soon enough
I guess we never really were that mature
