Cherry Lane

I was only 19 But just like Eve I couldn't turn down the taste Soon I was your own And we built a home On the street with an innocent name But blue suburban skies Couldn't hide these black eyes Well the cherry is so sweet Til your teeth hit the pit And you lose all the joy that you ever got from it Watch everything change On Cherry Lane Well, the West was once wild But now there's a child Who needs me like nothing else has Oh, that clandestine look Holds all the things you took No penny could change my luck Once flame is now a fire I live in your empire Well, the cherry is so sweet Til your teeth hit the pit And you lose all the joy that you ever got from it Watch everything change On Cherry Lane (Ooh) What makes a pill hard to swallow Is you'll have to take it again tomorrow Well the cherry was so sweet Til my teeth hit the pit
