Mary's Leather Clown

Do you remember the walks through the circus?

When I told you a secret or two

About the day your brother died in the pool

As I watched his eyes pleading to stay

And I watched his life floating awayMary's Leather ClownYou liked the coffee but you didn't like the cocaine

At the kitchen table three days with some friends

And my reply was a lie I said love never dies

And yes I exercise my demons it's true

But it helps me with what I'm to do toMary's Leather ClownYou liked the colors but you didn't like the explosions

In the summer I said we were through

And the night was alive like the fourth July skies

And now I'm shuffling pictures of you

Preparing what I am to do toMary's Leather Clown
