AIMEE MANN - Susan lyrics

rate me

Oh, susan, you were clued in<br>You knew just how this thing would go<br>A prognosis that was hopeless<br>From the very first domino<br>I guess I see it all in hindsight<br>I tried to keep perspective despite<br>The flash of the fuse, the smell of cordite<br><br>Now I'm in that place again<br>And I know he can't come in to get me<br>And someday he will live to regret me<br>Susan, I can see it now<br><br>Oh, suzie--they get to me<br>They can really be wearying<br>But he threw me rope and buoy<br>Let me use his decoder ring<br>There must have been some kind of parade<br>We kissed for a while to see how it played<br>And pulled the pin on another grenade<br><br>Now I'm in that place again<br>And I know he can't come in to get me<br>And someday he will live to regret me<br>Suzie, I can see it now<br><br>Oh, susan, the hope of fusion<br>Is that the halo will reappear<br>It may be pure illusion<br>But it's beautiful while it's here<br>I had some trouble with the goodbye<br>I checked my roman candle supply<br>And watched the vapor trail in the sky<br><br>But I'm in that place again<br>And I know he can't come in to get me<br>And someday he will live to regret me<br>Susan, I can see it now
