Dave Alvin - Wanda and Duane lyrics

Wanda met Duane in a local bar Next to an industrial park Duane didn't like the clothes she wore But she felt real good in the dark After a few dates, they said "why wait?" And Wanda moved in to stay In Duane's apartment on the second floor Next to the 605 freeway They made love in the morning, Love in the evening, love in the afternoon But all good things gotta come to an end Even in a warm bedroom Duane got tired of hearing her voice Wanda got sick of his breath And they never said a word when they went to sleep On opposite sides of the bed Well, ain't it a shame But there ain't no one to blame When love just slips away And only the lovers remain Well, ain't it a shame But there ain't no one to blame So the names have all been changed To protect Wanda and Duane Wand joined a gym but she never went 'Cuz it was just too far away Duane held the TV remote control And smoked three packs a day Wanda thought that undercover she might take a lover But you know she never did While Duane fell in love with the naked girls In all the magazines that he hid Wanda was looking out the front door At the trees blowing in the wind She said, "Maybe someday I'll blow out that door And I won't blow back again" Duane was staring out the bedroom windown At the leaves falling from the trees He said, "Maybe someday I'm gonna jump out this window And I won't say goodbye when I leave" (Repeat Chorus) There's no one to blame So we changed our names To Wanda and Duane
