lyrics

I wrote you a note on the 4th of July
I waited a lifetime for you to reply.
You waited too long to deliver the mail;
it finally came in the teeth of the gale.


The storm it was ragin’ in the valley below,
they packed up the tents in the traveling show.
they're goin' upriver to look at the Queen
they're rollin' the dice and they're makin' the scene.


You're weaving a web and you're calling the shots
the price that you're askin’ is more than I got
I'm paintin’ the town and I'm makin' my mark
A portrait of her that I did in the dark


She's haughty and nice as she sits on her throne
she's giving a glance that can cut to the bone
I'm turnin my back but I see in the glass
the right is the left, and the present is past.


I took out your note and I read it again
a tumble of words from beginning to end
I tore it to shreds and I threw it away
There's not enough words...
and there's too much to say.
