Lyrics
Kathy keller's only daughter I've been bad, but I'm getting better I seen you dancing with another man And he was holding your hand But all dances must rest Nothing lasts forever
Cynthia anne, so give me chances I will prove to you that romance is Something that doesn't have to make you Feel sick after, feel all cheated Over and over remember what he did I did it all, but now I'm really better
I would like to prove to you I have no appetite to do The things I did then And won't do again On my own, I'm all alone I try to make my affections known They won't stop talking About what I did twenty years ago
That bright kitchen, that old cleaver The spots of blood, the fallen phone reciever Don't you get tired of seeing those pictures? That was me, but now I'm different I did all that, but now I'm really better
I would like to prove to you I have no appetite to do The things I did then And won't do again On my own, I'm all alone I try to make my affections known But the evil's passed From one hand to another
Cynthia keller in the cellar Don't tell me you didn't get my letters I try to tell you, make you see That after all they did to me How I could I do that? all I can do now Is stay at home and watch t.v You're all I have, don't make me go Don't throw me away, don't leave me alone I can't be alone now that I'm all better I'm your slave, just Don't leave me alone with my being better
