Not Since 1989

I saw you falling from the sky

Your crater walls were on fire

I thought you would kill me

I thought you were an alien

But there you stood

In a Sunday dress

Totally out of your mind

I said why don’t you come here

Let me take you to shelter

You just looked right through me

To the stars behind

If you’re an angel

I’m sorry you’re here

There’s been nothing good here

Not since 1989

And that’s it, she walked away

Shortly after that

Maybe a moment of silence

I’m ashamed I forget

Da-da-dum de-dum..

If you were an angel

I’m sorry you’re here

There’s been nothing good here

Not since 1989
