lyrics

Goodnight Sheila Devine (also see YarnsLyrics_v1.pdf.)
V1
Train two-fifty-seven with Judge Sheila Devine
Leaves Grand Central Station at quarter to nine
Cabbies and caseloads are soon left behind
Blue pumps lay before her, another glass of wine
V2
Turns off her cell, douses the light
Wishes dead friends a cheerful 'good night'
Cringing in shadow, they whisper in spite
You could be wrong or you could be right
Chorus:
You could be wrong, you could be right
Mountains of sorrow, baskets of light
Will carry your heart around the bend
This is beginning
This is the end
V3
Trips over turtles asleep in the hall
Ghastly reminders hung on the wall
No trumpet heralds a last curtain call
This is the beginning of the end of it all
Chorus:
You could be wrong, you could be right
Mountains of sorrow, baskets of light
Will carry your heart around the bend
This is beginning
This is the end
Bridge:
Judge Sheila Devine wakes with a start
Tarrytown Station appears from the dark
This is beginning
This is the end
