I could've been the king of other flowers Your rattlesnakes would be charmed And smiling hard But we waited for too long I could've been your golden boy in neckties And your mother would be so pleased I could've drove you home But we waited for too long
We had a dream last night Church bells were ringing (Texarkana's falling down!) It was a long walk home But I kept that feeling Now we're deafened by the sound I don't wanna hear another word of it I don't wanna think about it anymore Take those pills, don't call me in the morning
You could've been my lap dog sitting pretty Answering every single call It could've bombed But we waited for too long
