Desperate Gown

I didn’t even read your letter

How’s that for leaving you alone?

I didn’t even play your message

Thought that’s how you wanted this to go

Oh but a broken heart don’t keep good company

What am I to do now you’re leaving me?

Oh I, I guess I fall apart too easily

I make a wreck of it

And fake like I think you can’t tell

But a desperate gown never wore me well

I’ve been a mess since our last conversation

Still know I’m right, but that don’t console

Do you know what it’s like to be left alone here?

Smoking alone here? Playing my piano in the dark

Oh but a broken heart don’t keep good company

What am I to do now you’re leaving me?

Oh I, I guess I fall apart too easily

I make a wreck of it

And fake like I think you can’t tell

But a desperate gown never wore me well

Don’t leave it open

Say you just might turn around, you keep on walking

And I’ll find solid ground if you go then you go

Leaving no room for your clothes

Oh I, I guess I fall apart too easily

I make a wreck of it

And fake like I think you can’t tell

But a desperate gown never wore me well
