Xtina As I Knew Her

歌詞

I was traveling light, travelin w a friend As Xtina came of age I hung w Xtina's friends They would all come round the house + slowly go insane Every night now up the bend, I'm in Xtina's house again She is just a lonely soldier Running w the times and the tides Maybe just a little older Quite a ways into the night I can see you comin, creepin slowly up the lane I can see her falling in and out of love again I can still see the street-w that boat off by the shore Drifting in and out of time, we're in Xtina's house once more Slip behind the valley curtain Lookin for a place to hide Shakey in these times uncertain Everyone drunk on red wine Drunk on red wine Playing with a flashlight in the dark 3 a.m. in the morning Playing with a flashlight in the dark Tommy smashing bottles against the wall Xtina wading in the water Its what you know, and you know it It's everyplace you go, so don't blow it Confusion takes away, makes it all turn wrong It only takes a day or two before I'm gone Well step right up t the house of pain Step right up on the porch, you bet on the wrong horse Walkin thru the door at ten (right about a quarter to ten) And being very very certain, yr in Xtina's house again She was just a lonely soldier Running up and down the line She was pure and wide and open She was somehow out of time Now she's frozen in time
