Neko Case, My New 'Favorite'

Oh lie
I thought you were golden I thought you were wise
Caught you returning To the house you caught fire
But I know that I was your favorite
And I said Amen

Wise, found favorin' heaven And I at your side
But I never felt sorry For those shimmering lies
When I laid down and cried I was faking
And I said Amen

Last night I dreamt That I hit a deer with my car
Blood from his heart Spilled out onto my dress and was warm
He begged me to follow But legions of sorrow defied me

Oh lie
I thought you were golden I thought you were wise
When I caught you returning To the house you caught fire
But I know that I'm your favorite
And I said "Amen"

Oh favorite
And I said Amen
