bishop allen – quarter to three lyrics
whenever light shines down on misery
it can only make things worse
on the day we met she burned so bright
i was lucky as a gypsy curse
well she was blushing like a wedding day
with her eyes so sharp and black
and her gentle little smile
was the color of blood
and she’s never ever coming back
now let me tell you:
i’ve been up since a quarter to three
and i’ve been pacing back and forth
through the hall
i’ve been thinking ’bout the first time
she took my hand
and i don’t understand it at all
whatever hopes i once kept safe and sound
in a locker underneath my bed
whatever thoughts i once kept to myself
are drowneded out and dead
because she sounded like a symphony
when she simply said my name
and the long blue days
that once were hers
are long now just the same
in the hallway hangs a photograph
on her hand, a diamond ring
she mailed it with a little note
she nailed it to the edge of my wing
i have burned out every sympathy
and the house is still and black
but now i’ve seen my misery
and she’s never ever coming back
