lyrics

Shelly sits inside a Sunday morning.
She can't predict the day.
All she knows is that it's very cold
and it will not go away.
So she sits in silence thinking sadly
of all the love she's lost.
And though the feeling hurts her very badly
she cannot count the cost.

She cries "Ahhh!"
It's so deep inside her.
"Ahhh!"
Her coffee's cold. She's growing older.
"Ahhh!"
She does it again 'cause the pain never ends.

Shelly runs away from Sunday morning.
She can't get past the gate.
All she knows is that it's gaining quick
and her brokenness won't wait.
So she slides down in the garden puddles
and drinks the fog in deep.
And though the feeling makes her memory muddled
she cannot start to weep.

She sighs "Ahhh!"
It's so deep inside her.
"Ahhh!"
Her skin is gray. He's gone away forever.
"Ahhh!"
She does it again 'cause the pain never ends.
