Sister can you hear me now
My luck's been dry for years
And I feel like a dinosaur
Broken face and broken hands
Watch my taillights fade to black
I read a thing about this girl
She was a hermit in her world
Her story was much like mine
She could be my valentine
And although we've never met
She cut herself off from her past
But I'm closing down on it
Watch my taillights fade to black
Lost my life in cheap wine
Cappy Dick nor Jesus Christ
I'm singing about my past
Had myself a wonderful thing
But I could not make it last
Watch my taillights fade to black
