lyrics

Sydney

I met a woman in Sydney who looked like cigarette smoke
Her hair was colored with memories and her mouth with a joke
Said “I don’t care for the opera, they might start singing off key
no no no, the opera’s not for me”

She held tight to her coffee as we walked by the bay
She told me she’d moved from Brooklyn, and with her thoughts on parade
I asked “What brought you to Sydney?” She told me “Love brought me here,
oh, I have a story my dear”

As we sat by the harbor, she slowly unpacked her life
Once a prophet of romance, later two times a wife
Said “My heart, it was broken, so I broke hearts in return
Then I crashed and burned”

“See, I lost two men to history, one was shot in the war
The other’s raising my children after I ran out the door
Oh and sometimes you lose love, sometimes you throw it away
And I’ve thrown it away
Oh my dear, my dear, never throw love away”
