goodbye to all that Lyrics

The orchids are no longer in bloom

And these days I find myself withering too

It doesn't matter who drew the blade first

We're both here red-handed, no one the victor

And I don't feel wiser

Just a little more bitter than I was before

I left myself open to you

I gambled with too much to lose

Only to come back with your shame to boot

I never thought I would say goodbye to you

You promised I wouldn't have to

But New York made Joan cry too

And I still tell myself anything but the truth
