lyrics
Meet me at the nunnery
It’s 1989
Iron gates and ivy walls
The sisters in decline
You look just like a nymph
Green velvet on your hips
I am gray paisley boy
With hair like Robert Smith
We listen to The Head on the Door
And smoke twelve clove cigarettes
New Jersey let us go
You see we’re cool as shit
I know it’s over
I know it’s done
We let go without a fight
Now our hearts are Samsonite
Meet me at the haunted ruins
Of the lunatic asylum
Where veterans of all the wars
Are dead or slowly dying
Take a picture of me here
Light that never ends
We don’t know what love is
But we love the Violent Femmes
Make me up in eyeliner
And let’s crash the car again
A perfect day for bannanfish
It’s so great to pretend
I know it’s over
I know it’s done
We let go without a fight
Now our hearts are Samsonite
Wonder where my wonder went
In 1993
Drinking in a Paris bar
And pissing in the Seine
Can’t even write a postcard
To the end of a century
Can’t remember anything
But the time of disbelief
Amy what’s become of us
What was our history
Love, love will tear us apart
But it’ll never set us free
I know it’s over
I know it’s done
We let go without a fight
Now our hearts are Samsonite
