HELEN HENDERSON: Lyrics

There's murder in the neighborhood
and mayhem in my heart
You sold yourself down river
Gave yourself a good head start
Now there's dust in the attic baby
and cobwebs on the stairs
And love's lined up like soldiers
At the foot of the bed
Voices at a fever pitch 
Like a ghost I let you in 
Standing like the devil in this
TWISTING WIND

You said start anywhere
Go on and make a mark
Now I can barely make you out
And I'm frightened of the dark
I would do anything to make you understand
Sometimes I think your'e glad
to have me off your hands
Our love it just froze up like a wooden indian
Standing like the devil in this
TWISTING WIND

I don't know what your'e running from
Or how it all began
But somehow baby we lost control 
And it slipped right through our hands
Nothings wrong and nothings right
And I can't do anything
Somehow no matter what 
It seems I just cant win
I should be over you I cant promise anything
And words just fall like leaves upon this
TWISTING WIND
