Waltz #2 (XO)

Elliott Smith

First the mic, then a half cigarette Singing, "Cathy's Clown" That's the man she's married to now That's the girl that he takes around town She appears composed, so she is, I suppose Who can really tell? She shows no emotion at all Stares into space like a dead china doll I'm never gonna know you now But I'm gonna love you anyhow Now she's done and they're calling someone Such a familiar name I'm so glad that my memory's remote 'Cause I'm doing just fine hour to hour, note to note Here it is, the revenge to the tune "You're no good You're no good, you're no good, you're no good" Can't you tell that it's well understood? I'm never gonna know you now But I'm gonna love you anyhow I'm here today and expected to stay On and on and on I'm tired I'm tired Looking out on the substitute scene Still going strong XO, mom It's okay, it's alright, nothing's wrong Tell Mr. Man with impossible plans to just leave me alone In the place where I make no mistakes In the place where I have what it takes I'm never gonna know you now But I'm gonna love you anyhow I'm never gonna know you now But I'm gonna love you anyhow I'm never gonna know you now But I'm gonna love you anyhow
