Princess cards she sends me with her regards
Barroom eyes shine vacancy, to see her you gotta look hard
Wounded deep in battle, I stand stuffed like some soldier undaunted
To her Cheshire smile, I'll stand on trial, she's all I ever wanted
But you let your blue walls get in the way of these facts
Honey, get your carpetbaggers off my back
You didn't even give me time to cover my tracks
You said, "Here's your mirror and your ball and jacks"
It's not what I came for
I came for you, for you, I came for you, but you did not need my urgency
I came for you, for you, I came for you, but your life was one long emergency
Crawl into my ambulance, your pulse is getting weak
Reveal yourself all now to me girl while you still got the strength to speak
'Cause they're waiting for you at Bellevue with their oxygen masks
But, but I could give it all to you now, if only you could ask
But don't call your surgeon, even he says it's too late
It's not your lungs this time, it's your heart that holds your fate
Don't give me money, honey, I don't want it back
You and your pony face and your union jack
Yes, you know it's true
I came for you, for you, I came for you, but you did not heed my urgency
I came for you, for you, I came for you, but your life was one long emergency
Yeah, so you left to find a reason, the one you're living for
It's not your nursery mouth that I came back for
It's not the way you're stretched out on that floor
'Cause I've broken all your windows and I rammed through all your doors
And you should know that's true
I came for you, for you, I came for you, but you did not need my urgency
I came for you, for you, I came for you, but your life was one long emergency
I came for you, for you, I came for you, but you did not heed my urgency
I came for you, for you, I came for you, but your life was one long emergency
I came for you, for you, I came for you
For you, for you, I came for you
For you, for you, I came for you
