lyrics

I saw you driving away this morning where were you going
I know that you must be sad but I've never even seen you cry

The wind howls your name
and blows loneliness
through the broken window pane
I'm alone at last, it's a shame
I can't hold myself while I hold on to you
My arms are long enough
but my heart gets bruised
When I asked you to leave I never would have dreamed
you'd leave so easily

I saw you driving away this morning where were you going
I know that you must be sad but I've never even seen you cry

I thank you for all the knowledge you gave me
and all the love that nurtured me and saved me
I hope that you are good to yourself
Cause I think you deserve the top two percent of this nations wealth
just don't give your love to anybody else
Until I'm far enough away not to hear her name
Now I want you to stay but it's too late, it's too late

The Philosophy of Evil Seagull
by Evil Seagull

I love Evil Seagull! Her songs pull me inward, into the deep, dark intelligence of my vulnerable heart. She carves her own style of smart melodic pop next to Elliott Smith and PJ Harvey. Maya Dorn
