When she jumped off the seesaw
i came crashing down
i lit a votive candle

and she lit up the town
when she went water skiing
i took a bottle and i drowned

every day i've lost
is just a minute that she's found


benji was
just a mangy mutt
but he hung around

until he made the cut

orphan annie

held out for the sun
of tomorrow
cause tomorrow's gotta come


but she's tripping on blue eyes
and god made my eyes brown

and when i need her here
is when she's not around


people never
close their traps
people say

that opposites attract

and i prayed so hard

my rosary is red
but maybe i'm a fool
cause maybe god is dead

but when you're drinking faith
you buy another round


cause once you cash it in
well, there's no going back
so i'll have one more

and pray that opposites attract

the sign of the cross

always starts
at the head, but ends up
at the heart


and how we fail
and all we lack

and heads believe
that they're never coming back


but hearts forgive
and souls interact
and in the end

opposites attract
