Lisa

Lisa

Lisa was sleepin, the night that i left.
I headed to Kansas, not a word on my breath.
Found an old friend on the corner
And a girl in my bed.

So I took off her clothes, and laid her down slow
Heard an old love song, on the radio.
I never felt worse than i felt,
Then when i heard the door close.

Someone tell Lisa, where i was found.
That the water in the winter ain't as cold as it sounds.
Tell her i never did change,
Just like the way she had explained.
Someone tell Lisa it's better this way.
There'll be blue skies, bright sunshine,
No grey clouds to blame.
Tell her i missed her the most.
When it's rainin this way.

So i walked to the bridge about a quarter to ten
Put my feet on the rails and my face to the wind
Thought of your smile in Chicago
Wen you spilt your wine on your dress.

Someone tell Lisa, where i was found.
That the water in the winter ain't as cold as it sounds.
Tell her i never did change,
Just like the way she had explained.
Someone tell Lisa it's better this way.
There'll be blue skies, bright sunshine,
No grey clouds to blame.
Tell her i missed her the most.
When it's rainin this way.
