Waltz For Jaded Lovers

Good times they come, good times they go

Sometimes theres blue sky's and sometimes theres snow

You are my sun, I am your rain

You are my happiness and I am your pain

God damn you she cried, with tears in her eye's

I hate your guts, go on get out of here

It was a mess, she spilled gin on her dress

Which was soiled with the failure of her years

Her eye's were red and puffy, and the kids began to cry

They had seen this kind of sordid mess before

Hysterical and lonely, and bitter with the years

She now blocked my exit from the door

And I stood like a rock

I tried not to talk

I know life, goes on

I hate you, you bastard, I wish you were dead

The venom in her eye's was like a snake

I said you drunken pig, you better get the hell out of my way

I don't remember feelin such hate

She ran in to the bathroom, she slammed the door with force

Her eye's looked like they were gonna bug right out of her head

I knocked down the door, I seen her lyin on the tile

She was grinin up at me, she was dead

She lay on the floor, a puddle of blood

A rusty razor lay by her side

The kids were screaming, MAMMA

I thought I was dreamin

She gone and committed suicide

And I stood like a rock

Tried not to talk

I know life, goes on

Well the cop's come in, and took the body away

Said the two little kids would become wards of the state

I walked down those garbage littered stairs

Not looking back, but tomorrow man I'll get myself straight

And I stand like a rock

I aint gonna talk

I know life, goes on

And I stand like a rock

I aint gonna talk

I know life, goes on
