lyrics

It was winter, maybe springtime
I couldn’t really tell
My words were weak, my hands were numb
My feet had started to swell
I was drinking luke-warm buds
Wasted without a friend
When lightning opened up my eyes
And I could see again

(Chorus)
Stella, please
I’m down here all alone
Stella please
So very far from home
On my knees

The world was spinning ‘round me
In a devil-colored light
The wind blew like a typhoon
On a Chinese Summer night
I wrote my whole life story
And hated what I read
I called you from an old payphone
And this is what I said…

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
To be lost in your sweet here after
To live and die with your laughter
Nothing else would matter

I want to play your Carole King
Records once again
And talk about how we should be
Vegetarians
If you still feel anything
Will you tell me now?
I’ll come crawling back to you
I’m sure I still know how

(Chorus)
