Michael John Lachiusa – Quartet- You'll Go Away With Me lyrics

Okay... I was stupid.
I shouldn't have trusted the guy
Big money, hidden in the boathouse
Hot money, somewhere in the dark
My money, had to trust a stranger
Hell, I knew the danger when we hit the park!

She... went with him!
Oh, she was afraid, my wife, my Lily
But she... went with him
Like... as though she had always wanted to
I tried to think about something else
Trained my mind on something other than their... lovemaking
I thought about the movie that I'd seen that night
"Rashomon"... "Rashomon"...
Such a beautiful film
The marquee outside the theater was missing an A from the title
So it spelled "R. Shomon"
Where was the A on the marquee? Gone! Gone...

A for anger
Ambition
Andrew's sisters
America

I'll go away with you, I know I will (You'll go away with me, you know you will) (ALARM)
I'll go away with you and not look back (You'll go away with me and not look back) (AMNESIA)
Does the sun really rise in the East? (ACTRESS)
Does the earth really spin around the sun? (ASSHOLE)
What's it matter in the least? (It don't matter)
What's real for me ain't real for everyone (ANGER)
I wanna stay with you, I know I have no choice (You wanna stay with me, you know you do)
You took away my right to think and choose (ADULTERY)
(I only told the truth) (AMBIVALENCE)
You knew what I needed (ACHE)
You knew what I wanted to find (ART) (ARTIFICE)
I'll go away with you (ALL GONE) (GONE)
And leave what was behind

Gone... Gone...
