Lyrics:

I woke her up twice in the middle of the night To ask what her name is and where she might live To ask how many fingers she saw in this light To ask if she might know what gives She said we rolled that Camaro like a cowboy cigarette Out on the highway in a puddle of beer That's just about how close to death you're gonna get Till the only thing standing is fear CHORUS: Singing, oh darling, faces were changed The names of the innocent, the story at five Oh darling, faces get strange But only the song survives She said, now don't you remember they put a patch on your eye Like Dread Pirate Roberts, you looked so unplanned They cut off my wedding ring and you started to cry A one-eyed Niagara Falls man CHORUS I said, but I never married - I said with surprise And is this the diamond you said that you lost It was under my eyelids when they flushed out my eyes Hell and I don't know what the thing cost CHORUS TWICE But I woke up sweating to breakfast in bed And there were my children, and there was my wife Post-traumatic stress, of just a bump on the head Or maybe the ride of my life CHORUS TWICE
