Breakfast With The Tin Man
I woke up with some bruises and a hangover todayEverything I ever loved has blown awayLike my lover's Sunday dresses and the smiles on her faceIt seems great, great, wind just won't let them stayI left my house wearing a top hat and a great big smileBecause I know that you'd be staying for a little longer whileTurns out my baby was a ghost and she's been holding out this candle"That's not what even hurts the most," she said"It's the drinking I can't handle."And it's not the things that you do, it's just the things you say "A couple swigs of whiskey will help ease the pain."I know that I'm a fool and that's my cue to leaveI'll wipe away my tears and catch a ride on the breezeI'll find myself a cave, a nice, cozy caveAnd make friends with all the animals and treesIt's not the things you do, it's just the words you sayA call or two would go a long way"Your heart is in the ground and your head is in the clouds.And I don't think I'll be able to get you down."I had breakfast with the Tin ManWe talked about silly thingsI told him he's lucky he don't have a heartHe says, "You humans are fools and take everything for granted.
