don't you ever sit in wonder
at the days we put asunder
don't you ever sit and wonder
how this town it pushed us under
don't you ever sit in wonder
at every slip and every blunder
they don't need to hear that story
don't bore them with that story
you can build a shrine about it
you can sew a doll about it
you can cast a spell about it
don't write a book about it
don't write a song about it
don't write a script about it oh
so discouraged by the words that
strikes a nerve and makes my heart hurt
every trip and every stumble
every misstep every mumble
i wonder and i long for
that time when we loved so
they don't need to hear that story
don't bore them with that story
you can burn a bridge about it
you can crash yer car about it
you can smash a vase about it
but don't write a book about it
don't write a song about it
don't make a film about it
cast out like the thieves from the temple
cast out like the thieves from the temple
you could build a shrine about it
you could sew a doll about it
you could cast a spell about it
but don't write a book about it
don't write no songs about it
don't write no poems about it
