Mrs. Rita

That you see it in her letters
On the paper with her pen
Her response is getting stranger
I think she's coming round againSo tell me Mrs. Rita
What's it say in my tarot?
Read my palm and tell me
Why do lovers come and go?Is she coming 'round for me once again
Around, or was that just the end?
I just hope she's coming 'round againI've been keeping myself busy
With my books and with my tapes
Every day's much better
Since I've slowed my drinking paceThere's no swimming in the bottle
It's just someplace we all drown
I've got lost myself in sorrow
Lost my confidence in doubtIs she coming 'round for me once again
Around, or was that just the end?
I just hope she's coming 'round againGet in the car and drive through town
Down the block and back around
Pretending that she's there with me we drive
Gone foreverWell, my patience keeps me plaintive
My high hopes keep me alone
My lover's will is shaken
I wish she would just come homeSo tell me Mrs. Rita
What's it say in my tarot?
Read my palm and tell me
Why do lovers come and go?Is she coming 'round for me once again
Around, or was that the end and?
I just hope she's coming 'round againIs she coming 'round for me once again
Around, or was that the end and?
I just hope she's coming 'round againI just hope she's coming 'round
I just hope she's coming 'round
I just hope she's coming 'round
