Letra de la canción 'MRS. POTTER'S LULLABY' de 'COUNTING CROWS'

Well I woke up in mid-afternoon cause that's when it all hurts the most 
I dream I never know anyone at the party and I'm always the host 
If dreams are like movies, then memories are films about ghosts 
You can never escape, you can only move south down the coast 
Well, I am an idiot walking a tightrope of fortune and fame 
I am an acrobat swinging trapezes through circles of flame 
If you've never stared off in the distance, then your life is a shame 
And though I'll never forget your face, 
sometimes I can't remember my name 
Hey Mrs. Potter don't cry 
Hey Mrs. Potter I know why but 
Hey Mrs. Potter won't you talk to me 
Well, there's a piece of Maria in every song that I sing 
And the price of a memory is the memory of the sorrow it brings 
And there is always one last light to turn out and one last bell to ring 
And the last one out of the circus has to lock up everything 
Or the elephants will get out and forget to remember what you said 
And the ghosts of the tilt-a-whirl will linger inside of your head 
And the ferris wheel junkies will spin them forever instead 
When I see you a blanket of stars covers me in bed 
Hey Mrs. Potter don't go 
Hey Mrs. Potter I don't know but 
Hey Mrs. Potter won't you talk to me 
All the blue light reflections that color my mind when I sleep 
And the lovesick rejections that accompany the company I keep 
All the razor perceptions that cut just a little too deep 
Hey I can bleed as well as anyone, but I need someone to help me sleep 
So I throw my hand into the air and it swims in the beams 
It's just a brief interruption of the swirling dust sparkle jet stream 
Well, I know I don't know you and you're probably not what you seem 
But I'd sure like to find out 
So why don't you climb down off that movie screen 
Hey Mrs. Potter don't turn 
Hey Mrs. Potter I burn for you 
Hey Mrs. Potter won't you talk to me 
When the last king of Hollywood shatters his glass on the floor 
and orders another 
Well, I wonder what he did that for 
That's when I know that I have to get out cause I have been there before 
So I gave up my seat at the bar and I head for the door 
We drove out to the desert just to lie down beneath this bowl of stars 
We stand up at the Palace like it's the last of the great Pioneertown bars 
We shout out these songs against the clang of electric guitars 
You can see a million miles tonight 
But you can't get very far 
Hey Mrs. Potter I won't touch and 
Hey Mrs. Potter it's not much but 
Hey Mrs. Potter won't you talk to me
