Two

Let this be our last goodbye

No need to wonder why

Never had the time to try

No, don't blame me

And don't let me down so slow

Damage done, now you can go

But a few things that you should know

Before you leave

And don't you never think of me as one among the rest

I got little else left to defend

I'm sure that you've seen better

But for you I did my best

But you'll go, I'll stay, I'll begin again

Just as you had planned

'Cause I've known lonesome things you can't come back from

I hope I never see your face again

And in the streets of old Juárez

The daughters of Hernán Cortés

Break their bodies for their bread

The strangest pain

And dress themselves by candlelight

And lips of red and robes of white

Step out to pulverize the night

Can you complain?

And all the faithless loyalties that decorate your chest

Will they bring you comfort in the end?

I'm sure that you've seen better

But for you I did my best

But sometimes, nighttime brings you back again

And I curse that western wind

'Cause I've known lonesome things you can't come back from

And I knew we'd be strangers in the end
