Strawberry Blonde
Eels
There she goes down in my head
Saying things she never said
E.e. cummings coming soon
But she'll be reading on the moon
And i don't know why she's gone
I'd welcome her in my arms
But she'll always be strawberry blonde
There she goes back in my heart
Pulling cobwebs in the dark
The five o'clock comes 'round the bend
And so she goes off with a friend
And i don't know why she's gone
I'd welcome her in my arms
But she'll always be strawberry blonde
She wrote a letter to her sister
She said this time it's the end
She never knew how much i missed her
Around the bend
There she goes down in my head
Leaving cobwebs on my bed
E.e. cummings coming soon
But she'll be laughing on the moon
And i don't know why she's gone
I'd welcome her in my arms
But she'll always be strawberry blonde
