Chappaquiddick Skyline Follow

And wrestled with your fate
The winter of your discontent
Came twenty years too late

If it was love and I was there
I've forgotten where it lives
We both stepped off a frozen rock
Onto a burning bridge

You came like an invasion
All bells and whistles blowing
Reaping the rewards
Of the fable you'd been sowing

I saw you cross the landing
Descending marble stairs
Like Caesar crossed the Rubicon
You seemed to walk on air

And, yeah, I've seen your movie
And I read it in your book
The truth just flew off every page
Your songs have all the hooks

You're seven wonders rolled in one
You shifted gears to cruise
Oh, you came to town in headlines
And eight hundred dollar shoes

Oh, the bellboys are crying
And money's changing hands
Your cloak and dagger legacy's
Gone home to No Man's Land

The marquee lights are flickering
Your poster's fading fast
Your being here just melts away
Like ice cubes in a glass

And, yeah, I've seen your movie
And I read it in your book
The truth just flew off every page
Your songs have all the hooks

You're seven wonders rolled in one
You shifted gears to cruise
Oh, you came to town in headlines
And eight hundred dollar shoes
Oh, you came to town in headlines
And eight hundred dollar shoes

And wrestled with your fate
The winter of your discontent
