You know he dreams about tornadoes, tumbleweeds, and hurricanes

I could blame it on his halos always getting in the way

(If I'd known his wings were crooked I'd have pressed them into shape)

Hopped a greyhound left his hometown population 1726 and change

For 60 bucks a broken suitcase his bad luck was my lucky day

Kinda thought we had a mess of time

I mistook him for a guy I knew with his shabby hat and his southern eyes

When he played he chipped a piece of me away I stood there hypnotized

Here's a lousy lullaby

Are you warm in winter are there still planets in your eyes?

I'm your ivory valentine

May the angels keep you laughing do I have to be alright?

I thought we had a mess of time

Dammit how could I?

If I seem a little scatttered there's an empty place

Where something used to beat

Definitly shattered like some stupid piece of china

How pathetic of me

Here's a lousy lullaby

I practice every day so I can keep you memorized

I'm your heartless valentine

May God forgive me I wish you'd melted in some other sucker's lousy lullaby
