    Stella, The Car's Out Back:

    Stella would you follow me home
    If I bought you all the things you dream about, that I can’t afford
    If I gave you the shirt and the burden off my back
    Every breath that ever haunted me,
    I’d give to you

    I can break your heart if you want me to
    For you,
    I can break your heart if you want me to

    Stella I’ll be that dark figure hanging on your wall
    I might stumble my baby but I’ll never crawl
    Drown our worries in the river and we’ll be laughing too

    We’re still lying on the rusted hoods of imaginary cars
    Taking turns abandoning those dreams that we had
    I’ll be the one you need when you’re falling apart
    But baby it’s gonna stop at that

    The drive in screens weren’t watching us laugh
    They’ve been torn down, stripped and the woods stacked in back
    We’re falling apart but we'll tame that dogs wild bark
    All the thieves in the night just don’t know where to start
    Tell your saviours your sins when you see them

    For you,
    I can break your heart if you want me to
    For you,
    Stella I can still break your heart if you want me to

    Stella I’ll be that dark figure hanging on your wall
    Behind your mother’s faded cracked porcelain dolls
    Stella I’ll be that figure hanging on your wall
    Behind your mother’s faded cracked porcelain dolls

    Stella for you, we can go paint them city streets with all the things we thought we knew
    And then for you, Stella I can still break your heart if you want me to

    A lovely line I noticed: "Stella,I'll be that figure hanging on your wall
    behind your mother's faded cracked porcelain dolls"


    A real treasure of words that is! It ain't easy to get something as touchy as that said in so few words.
    To my taste though, the whole poem/song is therefore too long, cause this is such a beautiful line.
    Still: thanks

    nxbeauchamp it looks like you have a genuine flair for writing, this really is really good.
