Tell them all that I meant to write
Tell them I stayed up all night
But couldn’t get it right
Still, I tried
Took a walk when the sun came up
Felt the heat through a coffee cup
My eyes were cold and numb
Still, I tried
Walking through these gray days, long days, clear ways past all light
There’s a place where the pavement ends
Before the beach and the pier begin
The trains come screaming in
So, I tried
Tell them all it’s a losers’ game
Kiss me baby, say my name
So I’ll come back again
Or, I’ll try
Do you think this breeze is never ending
Where land and sea conspire to keep me standing
Don’t tell me how the winners will be spending their
Cold, dead nights
Tell them all it’s a losers’ game
Kiss me baby, say my name
So I’ll come back again
Or, I’ll try
