Looking back, I should have known

All the nights that I spent in outer space

If in fact, I had said noWhat becomes of this? It′s hard to say

I'll feel better with the breeze on my back

And I′ll sleep better knowing it's in the past

Looking back, I should have known

All the nights that I spent in outer space

Cigarettes and old regrets

Piled in a stack out in the back of my brain

When you walk away

Better be for good

I put my money on a horse

Who won't be steered on any course or lane

And if I ever see a dime

You′d take that money to divide and separate

When you walk away

It better be for good

I know you′ll be there in the rain

Glowing like the first night

Telling me you've changed

I know you′ll be there in the rain

Glowing like the first night

Trying to explain

That when you walk away

It's gonna be for good

You were my Tom Verlaine
