Lyrics
There's a misty autumn midnight deep within her eyes
When she looks at me oh radiant beauty
If I didn't see your Norma Jean
And I just saw you Marilyn
I'm sorry
She told me his lies were like Kinsky's eyes
That she loved him that much
I said how can you cry that much
But her quaking aspen shoulders
Turn into boulders
None can touch
And sometimes you don't ask why you just move on
And sometimes you dry your eyes and then you're gone
A chill runs your spine and is mirrored in mine
Oh I long to be by your side somehow make it right
But that's making it about me and satisfying my need
I'm a lie
The virgin and the whore can be nothing more
Was that what made you strong Adam's original wrong
Cause I love my idea of you but thats no more truth
Than this song.
When she looks at me oh radiant beauty
If I didn't see your Norma Jean
And I just saw you Marilyn
I'm sorry
She told me his lies were like Kinsky's eyes
That she loved him that much
I said how can you cry that much
But her quaking aspen shoulders
Turn into boulders
None can touch
And sometimes you don't ask why you just move on
And sometimes you dry your eyes and then you're gone
A chill runs your spine and is mirrored in mine
Oh I long to be by your side somehow make it right
But that's making it about me and satisfying my need
I'm a lie
The virgin and the whore can be nothing more
Was that what made you strong Adam's original wrong
Cause I love my idea of you but thats no more truth
Than this song.
