The penultimate song on Craig Finn’s 2015 album “Faith in the Future”. It concerns the unrequited love the (perhaps too) cautious narrator has for his (perhaps too) adventurous friend.
She went to Memphis with some dentist
That she met on some weird website
And she came back three days later
She couldn't speak for a week
At the diner after bar time
In the bright lights eating french fries
She starts to cry
Christine reads magazines
New York, Los Angeles, London
Everyone wants something
I just want Christine
She says "Let's move to the city
Stay up all night, live the high life"
I said "Maybe first we visit
And make sure that we like it"
Christine reads magazines
New York, Los Angeles, London
Everyone wants something
I just want Christine
I just want Christine
She went to Pittsburgh with some pilot
She said she tried it, but she didn't like him
When she came back all distracted
Sort of shaky, sad and silent
At the diner eating french fries
In the bright lights after bar time
She starts to cry
And says "You're such a good guy"
Christine reads magazines
New York, Los Angeles, London
Everyone wants something
I just want Christine
I just want Christine
I just want Christine
I just want Christine
