Decoration Day

I’ve heard you explain this to me before how I’m not your favorite lover

I got this feeling you’re gonna tell me all about it some more

Why won’t you be so kind as to wake me when it’s over

I’m not your favorite lover

Wake me when it’s over

I’m not your favorite lover

I guess we raised our expectations a little high

And anyway our beginnings never know our ends

Maybe if you just had walked on by

I might have met you somewhere down the road and we might’ve become friends

I’m not your favorite lover

I’m not your favorite lover

Now all the flags they are flying

And all the drummers are marching on their way

And the soldiers pray for the dead and the dying

As they decorate their graves

I saw you standing there on decoration day

You where a revelation

I thought you might recognize me and say something

but you walked right on by and didn’t say nothing

I saw you standing there on decoration day

You where an inspiration

And I could not think of a single word to say

When you turned around and smiled and asked me for directions

I’m not your favorite lover

I’ m not your favorite lover

Wake me when it’s over

Not your favorite lover
