lyrics

on her couch, in her house
a blank word hanging from his foreign mouth
she didn't know him
who the hell was he man?
oh the gall
oh the audacity
when he laughed at she

her clip-on earrings and his fingerless gloves
a girl with her eyes caught in planets above
and upstart young cowboy wannabe
love
was eminent

but in her driveway, in his car
her best months spent and his best hat on
she tried to keep him, said
"who the hell are you, man?"
oh the gall
the downright audacity
he's crying, not she

she's a real good girl, but he's a restless one
now the curtain's rent, and the harm is done
and he tries to give her his reasons for running
the boy is full of it

on the grass, her backyard
the night swirls purple, the ground is hard
she still don't believe him

'cause on a bridge in florida
he tried to give her his fishing pole
he tried to give her his warmest coat
he tried to give her his face hung low

he tried to give her her favorite tea
he tried to give her the better seat
he tried to give her his trembling arm
he tried to give her his piecemeal heart
