She was my lover
She was my angel
What I recover of my self I put into a box and put it underneath my bed
I Put into a box underneath my bed
I Put her in a box underneath my bed
A place where she could rest
And from that box she spoke
and I heard her scream
You're a whore and you always were
My mother swore I couldn't trust you brother
I hate you and I always did
I just did a real good job of pretending
Another tragedy
And this broke my heart
in two
And this broke my heart in two
I said what am I going to do without you?
Baby My Baby?
Where are you now?
Baby My Baby?
Lost in the clouds
