I Loved You Most

She won’t come to me in the evening hours
When something’s lost forever, it won’t come back
I still pretend you’ve been here for a while
I loved you most, but you put me in my place

She won’t come to me talking bout Coltrane
And all that jazz we really used to love
I still confine in verses and disasters
You still confine in cocktails and in clothes

Gone the time when we were really crazy
Praying to all gods of Babylon
Dancing naked in the morning hours
Still I know that baby I loved you most

I used to write a song just every morning
To honor one more day by your side
You used to sing along to every line then
And I’m not sure just which lines have been lost

The lines about tequila are too simple
The one bout Spain is surely buried deep
And lines bout Love Immortals are now useless
I loved you most and you left me here to weep

Now you’ve got a lover who’s an actor
Well yes, at least that’s what he says
I’ve only seen him paying for your costumes
I’ve never seen him acting anywhere

Now you’re really classy, so refined
You’re on the top, you hang around the rich
You hope to be a singer or an actress
I loved you most, but now your price’s too big

Now you find it really entertaining
To spit upon a dirty beggar’s face
But please remember this fore you start laughing
One day I’m gonna put you in your place
