Cherry

They closed the bars and shops on the other side of town
I keep on looking for the woman but I know she's not around
My Cherry loved me, but she loved the needle more
I found a note in the morning, I was passed out on the floor

We met in April with the summer 'round the bend
Those hazy August nights that I thought would never end
The sand slipped through our fingers, and so did our lives
But Cherry had to have her fix when the money went dry
and I…

Don't know where to begin
The powder in her hands was as brown as her skin
Who were you fooling?

Cherry - What have you done?
Cherry - The only one
At night I had you by my side, you were gone
before dawn, and Cherry
Where have you gone?

They closed the bars and shops on the other side of town
I keep on praying for the bitch, but I know she's in the ground
My Cherry loved me, but she loved the needle more
A thousand miles an hour's not enough for that whore

And I'm twisted, falling again, close my eyes…
Can't help but see, falling away - Running down
call it "again"…
