I bought a ten dollar jacket from a twenty dollar girl
For an hour without kissing and a lot of make believe
She said "You're my dwelling place, sing a song for all redeemed
When you're in this crazy water, hide beneath the stream"
It's operational, it started to unwind
Singin' songs for the left alone concubine
Turn your head away from me honey, it ain't what it seems
Close your heart for me girl, it ain't worth a dream
Turn your head away from me honey, turn you head away from me girl
These October storms can be so cold
It makes you crawl on hands and knees, keep on laughing in your face
I don't blame you girls for all this madness over here
Hide your fears and your tears from my eyes
It's operational, it started to unwind
Singin' songs for the left alone concubine
Turn your head away from me honey, it ain't what it seems
Close your heart for me girl, it ain't worth a dream
For an hour without kissing and a lot of make believe
She said "You're my dwelling place, sing a song for all redeemed
When you're in this crazy water, hide beneath the stream"
It's operational, it started to unwind
Singin' songs for the left alone concubine
Turn your head away from me honey, it ain't what it seems
Close your heart for me girl, it ain't worth a dream
Turn your head away from me honey, turn you head away from me girl
These October storms can be so cold
It makes you crawl on hands and knees, keep on laughing in your face
I don't blame you girls for all this madness over here
Hide your fears and your tears from my eyes
It's operational, it started to unwind
Singin' songs for the left alone concubine
Turn your head away from me honey, it ain't what it seems
Close your heart for me girl, it ain't worth a dream
