1
They woke up on a northern river delta
2
On the border between east and west
3
Terry took one last half-assed look around him
4
Pulled the weight of their misfortunes off his chest
5
He said, "Marie, don't you be coming after me
6
I'm a long way off from where I'll be
7
I won't be coming back here again
8
Until the southern city lights light up for me."ย
9
She had a face beaten down by all the sounds
10
And a voice barely loud enough to scream
11
He kept a picture of the woman
12
that he loved in his back pocket
13
Torn out from some skin flick magazine
14
There's no way it could go any other way
15
He was born to end up losing in the end
16
She said, "You'll be coming back here again..."ย
17
But in her head somewhere she knew that she was free
18
Terry looked down at the lakes and frozen rivers
19
Rolled a another cigarette between his knees
20
He said, "It seems to me this world's got a lot more than I been taking
21
And from now on I'll be laughing in my sleep."ย
22
Marie don't you be coming after me
23
I'm a long way off from where I'll be.
24
I won't be coming back here again
25
Until the southern city lights light up for me.
26
So fast by
27
Should've stayed sleeping
