She Says - Lyrics by Difranco Ani


Lyrics
she says forget what you have to dopretend there is nothingoutside this roomand like an idea she came to mebut she came too lateor maybe too soon
I said please try not to love meclose your eyes, I'm turning on the lightyou know I have no vacancyand it's awfully cold outside tonightthe rain stains the brick a darker redslowly I'm rolling out of her bedthe rain stains the streets a darker black
I dress my face in stonebecause I can't go back
I feel her eyes watching mefrom behind the curtain of her hairand she says I'm sorry
I didn't mean to stare
I say I think I really have to go nowbut oh baby, maybe somedaymaybe somehow.
