Have it out again with a ghost behind the bar...

lyrics

Standing on the corner, waiting for the morning to find me
Lean my head on the bus stop 'til the wind winds me up
And I can speak the way I should, the way you wish I would
When I come to you, when I come to you

It does no good to grieve if you never leave the past behind
It does no good to leave if I never get you off my mind
Keep packing boxes just to take 'em on down the line
It's good sometimes to cry
Baby, it's good sometimes

Standing on the corner, waiting for the morning to find me
Lean my head on the bus stop 'til the wind winds me up
And I can speak the way I should, the way you wish I would
When I come to you, when I come to you

Have it out again with a ghost behind the bar
Turning riddles, dripping whiskey on the floor
Sometimes you come undone no matter how hard you tie the knot
It's good sometimes to want
Baby, it's good sometimes

Standing on the corner, waiting for the morning to find me
Lean my head on the bus stop 'til the wind winds me up
And I can speak the way I should, the way you wish I would
When I come to you, when I come to you

Try to say my name but the words all come out wrong
You're tired of playing games, well which side are you playing on
Tried to pick the lock but the card slipped on through
It's good sometimes to lose
Baby, it's good sometimes to lose
You know it's good, it's good sometimes to lose
You know it's good sometimes

Standing on the corner, waiting for the morning to find me
Lean my head on the bus stop 'til the wind winds me up
And I can speak the way I should, the way you wish I would
When I come to you, when I come to you

Shelley Miller Chicago, Illinois

Shelley Miller isn't afraid to take chances. Less interested in genre than honesty, she pens darkly soulful tunes about life just outside the lines. Folk? Perhaps...late-night jukebox folk. Gospel for non-believers folk. Had-one-too-many-and-lived-to-tell folk. Rock hymns for the unhemmed folk.

Shelley released her 4th album, February, in March 2012. She lives in Chicago. ... more
