I called you up in the middle of the night
Got you out of bed, guess I gave you a fright
Still, when you're famous you can do what you like
Put on my robe, got into the car
Respectable neighbours think I've gone too far
If you can't be weird, why become a star?
Carol Mountain I'll get over you someday, someday
Carol Mountain I'll get over you someday, someday
Drive me to Ann Arbor, put me on a plane
Got to be in Chicago, see the boys again
While I'm away assemble all my friends
Have them at the airport in the Visitor's Lounge
We'll get snap-happy when I touch down
Tell Durrie Parks she'll have to sit on the ground
Carol Mountain I'll get over you someday, someday
Carol Mountain I'll get over you someday, someday
I saw your husband and he wears a gun
You should have married me now I'm the wealthy one
Carol Mountain I'll get over you someday, someday
Carol Mountain I'll get over you someday, someday

I want to make you happy
Want to see you soar
'Cause when you're happy
You're gonna love me more
But I just can't help myself
I've always been bad
And You're More Beautiful When You're Sad
I live my life in a daydream
Head in the air
And in that daydream
Your smile is there
Back in the real world
I treat you so bad
And You're More Beautiful When You're Sad
Who'd have thought that I'd get caught
In such a strange affair?
Who'd have that I'd get caught at all?
I'd like to say that I'm sorry
For causing you such pain
But even though I'm sorry
You know I'll do it again
And I'll never forgive myself
I've always been bad
And You're More Beautiful When You're Sad
When You're Sad, When You're Sad

The Garden of Our Love

I went inside The Garden of Our Love
It was bare and barren there
With storm clouds up above
Nothing seems to grow there anymore
Innocence, with violence, lies murdered on the floor
As never before, as never before
Because you're lying and I don't really mind
I guess I'm the lying kind myself
You're lying and I don't even care
I am not filled with despair anymore
I chanced upon the landscape of your heart
Rolling hills and daffodils are sadly not departed
There I met the guardian of our truth
Stooped he stands, his head in hands
Just weeping for our youth
That's the guardian of our truth he was weeping for our youth
Because you're lying and I don't really mind
I guess I'm the lying kind myself
You're lying and I don't even care
I am not filled with despair anymore, anymore
I'm in The Garden of Our Love
Left in The Garden of Our Love
