Red Paint

(álbum: 30° Everywhere - 1996)

Well, I was sad enough last Saturday
I woke you to talk but I didn't have much to say
You came to to two cherry cokes, came to to coke
You came to to two cherry cokes, came to to coke
In the morning, when the wind is still warm
And the rivers still following, still following

The Astor hotel is black in the windows
Black in the hall
Since we left we left separately

I woke you to talk but I didn't have much to say
You came to to two cherry cokes, came to to coke
You came to to two cherry cokes, came to to coke
In the morning, when the wind is still warm
And the rivers still following, still following

The Astor hotel is black in the windows
A country letter, straight from a widow:
Come in the nighttime to the back porch, throw rocks at my window

And climb the terrace to the landing
This house built cleverly for you and me
You sound like young love
