Smokey Lyrics - Red House Painters

I'm broken down 

You caved my karma in 

I'm staying up 

Waiting for you like a fool 

You made me forget 

About all the dreams I kept 

I keep your glass hand 

By the bed we slept 

I can't erase your smokey eyes 

Your smothered face, gripping on my waist 

Leaving a ghost upon the Oregon Coast 

And on the floors of a crashes porch 

Who can pretend 

That there's a beginning without an end? 

It ain't contrived all this magic in our lives 

Comes down like a storm then drizzles then dies 

Your soul is free 

But you're the one I need 

And you made your deal 

But you're still my ideal 

And so I wait 

And so I choose this fate 

And store your shape 

In my electric bed 

Who can pretend 

That there's a beginning without an end? 

It ain't contrived all the magic in our lives 

Comes down like a storm then drizzles then dies
