about

For Sharon.

lyrics

And I looked her in the eye and I began to cry
Please leave me alone
She just laughed and said
When you are gone and when you're dead
And as cold as a bone

This is how it's always been, inside each other's skin
And it's how that it will be
Don't matter how I resist it, don't matter how I twist it
From her I can't break free

She threw her head back and her eyes turned ablaze
She said, I will love you for the rest of my days
And I believed her even though I knew her ways
I believed she'd love me for the rest of my days

And I held her by the hand
As we walked this ancient land
To build new from old
We tried to make it work
Lift each other one clean jerk
A sight to behold

This is how we always were
Ask her and she will concur
This is how we'll always be
Two peas inside a pod
One is even, one is odd
But neither one can break free
