Xtina As I Knew Her-Lee Ranaldo

I was travelling light Travelling with a friend As xtina came of age I hung with xtina's friends And slowly go insane Every night up around the bend I'm in xtina's house again She was just a lonely soldier Running with the times and the tides Maybe just a little older Quite a ways into the night Quite a ways into the night Creeping slowly up the lane I can see her falling In and out of love again I can still see that tree With that boat off by the shore Drifting in and out of time We're in xtina's house once more Slip behind the valley curtain Looking for a place to hide Shaky and those times uncertain Everyone drunk on red wine Drunk on red wine Turn on a flashlight in the dark At 3 am in the morning Drunk on red red wine Tommy smashing bottles against the wall Xtina waiting at the wall It's what you know and you know it It's every place you go, so don't blow it Confusion takes away, makes it all turn wrong It only takes a day or two before i'm gone Long gone Well step right up To the house of pain Step right up on the porch You bet on the wrong horse Walking through the door at 10 Right about a quarter to 10 Being very very certain We're in xtina's house again She was just a lonely soldier Running up and down the ride She was pure and wide and open She was somehow out of time Now she's frozen in time
