Lady Kerosene - Spin Doctors

I saw you sighing by your window bright,

Touch my heart to be your acolyte

Sip fire-water from the golden cup

Drinks at my bedside, as I’m burning up.

Lady Kerosene, I can see the wreckage now,

Drinking gasoline, you keep on pumpin' it out somehow.

Now I’m at Ashland, baby, far away

I’m just a cinder of a summer’s day.

Lady Kerosene, Prometheus' evil daughter;

You know what I mean,

I even asked him for a glass of water.

I always thought it was a gentle notion

I flew across the Atlantic Ocean

Rain is different there across the sea

it hits the Earth a little differently

Windshield wipers keep a steady time

Crosswords among the cliffs of lime

Beyond horizon and the clouds of devotion

Comes sunset’s tendons from your crimson sun

Lady Kerosene (repeat 4 times)
