lyrics

How I remember in the midnight
In the beer light how your fading halo glowed just like a mood ring
That you lifted from the counter of the Union Street Cumberland Farms

And in the passenger seat of a Grand Caravan
Your tenth cigarette still unlit in your hand
And your eyes rolling back into your head, you were a black and white movie star

You came from New Haven ambivalent
Your hair was all gone, your kiss was antiseptic
It was a bad wind that blowed me
Tumbling back into your arms

So tonight you slip inside the city gates to catch your breath
And hallelujah, I've been saved even if only for a second
And you go on back to work or back to college or whatever you do now

I admit your yellow hair isn't so yellow any more
It's like the sky decided that it was your mother on some cold November morning
And you held it like a secret and we were blacking out

The homecoming was not what I expected
Your fingernails were long, your gaze was disaffected
But right away I recognized you by the curses
That were coming out your mouth

You said coyote goes
In my shadow wherever I go
And Caroline knows and carries him inside her raincoat
With the pockets full of holes and blue eyes peeking through the leaves
It was nothing like it was on my TV
