Bugeye Jim - Billy Bragg, Wilco

If I get up and let you in

I lose my house and my home again

If I get up and try to come

I get sent back to the land I’m from

Back to the land I’m from

The cloud came low and the rain did pour

I hear your hand touch on my door

The rain has quit and the light of the moon

Shows you standing in my room

Standing in my room

Bugeye Jim, I can’t come

I can twist and turn, but I can’t come

I can ache and I can burn, but I can’t come

I woke up this morning with an aching brain

Hear you tap on my window pane

I look at you with a heavy head

I hear you sit down on my bed

The storm gets worse and my heart feels bare

I feel your fingers comb my hair

Feel you comb my hair

The mud it runs and the waters rise

I feel your hotkiss on my eyes

The rain it rained and the world did stir

I sing to you my lovesick word

I sing to you my lovesick word

Bugeye Jim, I can’t come

I can twist and turn, I can’t come

I can ache and I can burn, but I can’t come

I woke up this morning with an aching brain

Hear you tap on my window pane
