Under the old tree
crippled by the flash
On the brittle bench,
where all our dreams got hashed
On the sidewalk,
puke’s running down the drain
I said I’m sorry,
let’s try it out again
Back last summer
and on our way to Rome
Cooking in the car all day,
our hearts still caged at home
Under the Colosseum,
the tourists going mad
I was counting all the chances
and restarts we just had
But when the day was over,
the hotel’s cheap and shabby
Sleeping with you side by side,
´s like living in an abbey
They say home is where the heart is,
But mine seems never home
Wish I had the guts to follow,
Wherever it may roam
In the green garden,
false promises were made
Birds looking for a place to sleep,
before it is too late
Nobody had told us
that love could be so cruel
But if we think about it,
we know we were both fools
Standing on a bridge,
above a river with no name
Read your pathetic letter,
which you wrote so full of shame
So many words,
And so little to say
I crumpled up the paper
and threw that shit away
