After Your Party - Tanya Donelly

One half of one bottle of last night’s chianti

Some suffering oranges, yesterday’s bread

You said you might stop by after your party

So I’m laying out all that I have

When I moved to the city I thought I’d be busy

Running from engagement to appointment to date

But I’m not and I don’t and it looks like I won’t be

Becoming the new flame in town

Well you said you might drop by after your party

And that’s good enough for me now

Jaded young women pass by by the handful

And by the handful they throw away chance

Chances I’d die for, die for and live for

And chance is what I live it all up to today

One half of one bottle of last night’s chianti

Some suffering old oranges, yesterday’s bread

You said you might drop by after your party

And I’m afraid this all that I have

Well you said you might drop by after your party

And I’m afraid this all that I have
