lyrics
They’ve dyed your hair auburn
But it was strawberry blond
And how the girls fawned over it
When we were young
Like the gleaming Christina
The very image of bliss
Who’d stood in the cattails, shimmering
Golden on the summer solstice:
Remember?
She’s alone in her loneliness
She’s alone in her loneliness
She’s alone in her loneliness
Some are sending up signals
And picking up signs
From Ladies of Sundry Locations
Through cell-towers and powerlines
While I lie in the swelter, restless
Sweat-drops, glistening
Wondering what kind of gullible
Fool would think there’s someone listening:
Is someone listening?
Are we alone in our loneliness?
Are we alone in our loneliness?
Are we alone in our loneliness?
They’ve dyed your hair auburn
But it was strawberry blond:
Maybe you’re young again
Maybe you’re nothing
Maybe you’re just alone…
…in your loneliness…
Alone in your loneliness
Alone in your loneliness
Alone in your loneliness
Alone in your loneliness
But it was strawberry blond
And how the girls fawned over it
When we were young
Like the gleaming Christina
The very image of bliss
Who’d stood in the cattails, shimmering
Golden on the summer solstice:
Remember?
She’s alone in her loneliness
She’s alone in her loneliness
She’s alone in her loneliness
Some are sending up signals
And picking up signs
From Ladies of Sundry Locations
Through cell-towers and powerlines
While I lie in the swelter, restless
Sweat-drops, glistening
Wondering what kind of gullible
Fool would think there’s someone listening:
Is someone listening?
Are we alone in our loneliness?
Are we alone in our loneliness?
Are we alone in our loneliness?
They’ve dyed your hair auburn
But it was strawberry blond:
Maybe you’re young again
Maybe you’re nothing
Maybe you’re just alone…
…in your loneliness…
Alone in your loneliness
Alone in your loneliness
Alone in your loneliness
Alone in your loneliness
