I saw you sighing by your window bright,
Touch my heart to be your acolyte
Sip fire-water from the golden cup
Drinks at my bedside, as Im burning up.
Lady kerosene, I can see the wreckage now,
Drinking gasoline, you keep on pumpin it out somehow.
Now Im at ashland, baby, far away
Im just a cinder of a summers day.
Lady kerosene, prometheus evil daughter;
You know what I mean,
I even asked him for a glass of water.
I always thought it was a gentle notion
I flew across the atlantic ocean
Rain is different there across the sea
It hits the earth a little differently
Windshield wipers keep a steady time
Crosswords among the cliffs of lime
Beyond horizon and the clouds of devotion
Comes sunsets tendons from your crimson sun
Lady kerosene (repeat 4 times)
