Cherry Blossoms

                                  I drive this car through the city every night

There's a quiet I never heard before

And lonely, my sister could not describe

All the good things gone wrong



And there was blood on my teeth

From the long winter here

Bones broke in half

A stain on my shirt

From a couple hours out with the boys

And all good things come to an end

And all memory has left my bones



If I drove straight off this bridge

Only God and my baby would know

I'm sure she'd be laughing, conjuring spring

With some fella who just said the right thing



And there'd be blood on my teeth

From the long winter here

Bones broke in half

A stain on my shirt

From a couple hours out with the boys

And all good things come to an end



See all I can do is think about you

And miss all your kisses like the spring

But if I had a sign

That one day you'd be mine again, oh no

If I could hold you right then

As the chill in this season sputtered and spit and died with



Blood on my teeth

From just what they did here

Snow tumbling down on the ground

And me stumbling out of my heart

Finding cherry blossoms on the hood of my car
