I knew a girl from outer space
We used to meet at a dreamy place
It's a long way home
She introduced me to Jesus Christ
She told me how she saved his life
But she could use a saving of her own
Don't wait for an invitation
You're not gonna get it from me
I know what you're looking for there
Babe, you're looking hard but there ain't nothing free
♪
And it comes to her in a dream
But it ain't quite like it seems
She's a mystery
She says she's sorry with a kiss and a [?]
She smoked all my drugs
And that's not cool with me
Coming down, with desperation
Trying to get in touch with all your friends
You tell them all that you're on vacation
But they hope they never see you again
You wound up in a river, baby
Telling everybody that you're finally clean
You remind me of a railway station
Your arms got tracks if you know what I mean

You're passed out in the bathtub

Your arms got tracks, come on
