Chris Trapper - Perfumed Hair lyrics

Still wearing my makeup from yesterday

I'm a corner cutting clown

Lower the curtains down

There's no more crowds around

See Mary Jane sneaking a cigarette

Like a shadow in the room

Watching the cloud go by

Wishing that she could fly

This is the circus

The backstage door

Every act I've seen before

Somebody's spilling a drink on my

Somebody claimed I saved his life

Here's hoping he's still alright

In thorugh the back door in Baltimore

From the cradle to the stage

Singing my pain away

Hoping someone relates

This is the circus

The beer soaked floor

Come take me eyes I've seen before

But when I feel alone

When I just don't know

I hear your voice on the phone

Saying when I come home you'll be there

You say you just can't wait

But I'll be home too late

So when I find you asleep

I will turn out the lights

And kiss your perfumed hair

Blow out of the club to the parking lot

From the highway to the street

Reach in to find the key

Locked deep inside of me

Seeing my shadow a second late

Trying to navigate the stairs

Hoping that you still care

Tripping up everywhere

This is the circus

The place you land

Hoping you can come back again

But when I feel alone

When I just don't know

I hear your voice on the phone

Saying when I come home you'll be there

You say you just can't wait

But I'll be home too late

So when I find you asleep

I will turn out the lights

And kiss your perfumed hair
