i was wasted in the afternoon
waiting on a train
i woke up in pieces and elisabeth had disappeared again
i wish you were inside of me
i hope that you´re ok
i hope you´re resting quietly
i just wanted to say

goodnight elisabeth

we couldn´t all be cowboys
so some of us are clowns
and some of us are dancers on the midway
we roam from town to town
i hope that everybody can find a little flame
me, i say my prayers,
then i just light myself on fire
and i walk out on the wire once again
and i say

goodnight elisabeth

i will wait for you in Baton Rouge
i´ll miss you down in New Orleans
i´ll wait for you while she slips in something comfortable
and i´ll miss you when i´m slipping in between
if you wrap yourself in daffodils
i will wrap myself in pain
and if you´re the queen of california
baby i am the king of the rain
and i say

goodnight elisabeth
