Ophelia - The Band

Boards on the window
Mail by the door
Why would anybody leave so quickly for
Ophelia?
Where have you gone?

The old neighborhood
Just ain’t the same
Nobody knows just
What became of
Ophelia?
Where have you gone?

Was it somethin’ that somebody said?
Mama you know we broke the rules
Was somebody up against the law?
Honey, you know
I’d die for you

They got your number
Scared and runnin’
But I’m still waitin’
For the second comin’
Of Ophelia
Please knock on my door.

Was it somethin’ that somebody said?
Honey, you know we broke the rule
Was somebody up against the law?
Honey you know
I’d die for you

Ashes of laughter
The ghost is clear
Why do the best things always disappear?
Like Ophelia
Please darken my door.

I seem to be finding your posts a lot this morning...

Ophelia may have her bleeding ulcer under control, but she is still a mental case, as are all who voted for her.

(Go Tigers - Go Vols - I like both schools) I’d love to see a rematch in the big dance!

Wonder how long it`ll be before she falls off
a bar stool again.

"My blood disease is a bleeding ulcer. It took them that long to find out, causing other complications to come about in between time."

Yes, I guess you could say falling off a bar stool is a "complication".

I saw a young woman have such a "complication" in San Francisco a few months ago -- the bartender was giving her free shots of Jägermeister right up until her "complication" manifested itself.
