The moon sheds light across the end of the bed.

You made me wait but now i'm touching your leg.
C             G             Am             F
And i remember all the little things you said,

"quesadillas, made with cheese" and "a rock band who went japanese."

I picked the fruit from the tree and it was ripe.

Your love got big, your drugs got worse each afternoon.

Like bacon at a bah mitzvah, like a lead balloon.
C             G             Am             F
And who's to say what really happened in that room each day?

I was looking for a bride, you were looking for a groom.

And all you people are the heroes i'd known.

We're staring off the edge into the unknown.

We picked the fruit from the tree.
