After Mardi Gras
See that shadow on the wall
Doesnt look like me at all
Head hung down
Intentions meltin on the ground
Saddest shape I ever saw
Theres so much I need to do
Before I get over you
But I cant bother with it all
Until after Mardi Gras
All that music in the air
Happy people everywhere
Make it hard to sing the blues
Until Mardi Gras is through
Put my loneliness away
Save it for a rainy day
Delay the pain
Nothin ventured nothin gained
The timell come but thats okay
