lyrics

you were almost standing next to me
but still so far away
I prayed and prayed for this hex to free
to free you from your pain

you'll be something to somebody someday I can see
if you're gonna spend your love don't waste a cent on me

an open window in the distant leaked
like water from a pail
a familiar melody that sang to me
like a choir of misfit thieves

you'll be something to somebody someday I can see
if you're gonna spend your love don't waste a cent on me

I came home to find a vacancy in the bed we once had shared
hung my hat on our masterpiece and pulled from the sheets the strands of your hair
