Shudder Girl Lyrics

Waiting on the center road as the setting sun grew red
I saw accidents that made me twist my head
And I walked along the river bank
Smoke-grey clouds appeared
And I knew inside exactly what I feared

Oh, away from me her black eyes opened wide
What if I told you the places I'd like to hide?

Suddenly I was at a time to see the closing of the fair
Two men came charging out and I fell into the pair
And I tossed and turned and looked around
To that I can attest
The door was open and I never should have left

Oh, come back to me, I've stayed too long alone
And I found the key but I couldn't get back home.

Have yourself a sweet dream, darling, and sleep the night away
But the visions came to her in the middle of, the middle of the,
The middle of, the middle of the day. Shudder girl, I'd look around the bottom of the night
And the door was open but I never looked inside
A broken window, chiming bells of things I'd left behind
And the door was open but I never looked inside

Have yourself a sweet dream, darling, sleep the night away
But the visions came to her in the middle of, the middle of the,
The middle of, the middle of the day.

Shudder girl, I'd look around beneath enchanted skies
And the door was open but I never looked inside
In cold confusion pity spoke but logic I defied
And the door was open and I never looked inside

Oh, what a pretty picture it made with her sitting on the bench
Her hands were tossed and turned and you hurt me now,
I hurt you then,
I told you once,
I'll tell you now, I said.
