One  time in ten things will  perfectly mend
 And the moonlight  on the porch screen will so  perfectly bend
 And you'll bow  like a flower  and be OK  without  her
 As your holiday  crescendo  begins
Christmas  came one thousand times  each year
 Once on the twenty-fifth,  the rest when she  was near
 And you could lose  yourself in all that  coke and beer
 But you always  came out smelling like a rose  when she was close
"Hold  me," she says, her hair  is a mess
 But her eyes  glow like embers so you draw  close and press
 Her photo  to your face,  feel its  glossy embrace
 After that  you sort of forget  the rest
 But it's so windy  in the aspen  groves
 Driving the wildfire  west, (????????)
 Making your heaving  chest open  and close
 You know  things only glow  when they're broken and lonely
 So then you're there  on the beach while she  was still in reach
 She was  the type of girl who'd make a pastor  want to preach
 Of brimstone  and grails,  of the blood  on the nails
 Of stained  hair and bathtubs  full of bleach
 You're on the Greyhound  bus watching the South  get small
 Beeline for Canada,  escape the (???????)
 'Cause when the leaves  catch fire you wait for ghosts  to call
Disconnect  the phone
 Get the hell out of this hell you once called home
 (repeat ---  few times, end on .)
