Lyrics
Burnt Out Car
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
A simple
Good morning
Or hello would have done
The silence
10 am
Not my idea of fun
The papers
The photos
Things were found in the fire
Chorus:
Something that you said
The look upon your face
Something in the way you hold me
I know what they say
I know what this means
I know that you never told me
A change of hair colour
Clairol baby-blond
I'm not quite used to it
It never takes too long
No makeup
No earrings
Nothing to identify me
Chorus
