First kiss tasted like cherry wine
Now our beds a dotted line
You dream of Paris I check the bills
Romance drowned in coffee spills
We painted rainbows on the wall
Til mortgage papers stained them all
What is love really Superglue for cracks
Or cold feet touching in the dark
This sugar turns to gravel in my mouth
I read the manual north to south
Still dont know what the hell its about
Your roses rust inside Target vases
Anniversary sparks burned tax traces
You scroll through Zillow I count my grays
That teenage lightning Faded away
Saw angels in the laundry steam
Heard vows shatter in silent screams
If God says Strike the match again
Id freezejust spin my wedding band
Like a quarter in some diners hand
What is love really A torn umbrella
Or saving me the last cannoli
This salt crystallizes in my veins
I keep decoding hurricane rains
Still dont know why my heart remains
Chapel doves are burger joint flies
But some damn fool in me still tries
When the jukebox sobs a Memphis tune
I toast the ghosts in this stale room
To all us foolswounded but still believe
In magic we cant see
