Lyrics
I think he's that hurt bird that tries to fly with one wing
And she's the clear sky that makes him wanna sing
He's been fooled once before, went home and she'd locked the door
He never could get the key working again
He said he's made some changes, he shaved off his beard
Starts walking towards her, bottle in hand, it's just what she feared
But then he puts the bottle down, lays on the hardwood ground
And says "Baby I need you to stay with me here"
She says "I can't do that. Before long you'll find somewhere else to hang up your hat"
He says "I promise I won't. This bottle is empty and I found it like that"
She sits cross-legged on the floor, and tries to think why
Should she love a man that comes and goes at the blink of an eye
He says "There's not another woman that I could want
That will give me something I don't already got in you"
She says "Leave me alone,
Just leave me alone"
She says "I can't do that. Before long you'll find somewhere else to hang up your hat"
He says "I promise I won't. This bottle is empty and I found it like that"
