作词 : VanZandt | |
By townes van zandt | |
Like silent she stands | |
Like laughter she falls | |
From a castle of sand | |
Like a memory she crawls | |
And the mockingbirds grieve | |
'cause they can't make her cry | |
They'll soon start to believe | |
That the lady has died | |
What it all goes to show | |
It ain't my job to say | |
For who am i to know | |
Why she's actin' this way | |
Once again turn away | |
If you're sure that it's done | |
Tell your prophets to pray | |
Tell your bandits to run | |
Take your eyelids of stone | |
They won't do you no harm | |
Take your cross made of bones | |
Take your your fly-paper arms | |
And when everything's placed | |
In your coffin and go | |
Through a scarf 'round your face | |
'cause the subway gets cold | |
Pack up your sunflower smile | |
And your bandana blues | |
Take your worthless denials | |
They're all you've got left to lose | |
Take your tinkerbell lies | |
And your weary desires | |
Take the tears in your eyes | |
Take your cup full of fire | |
Give your lover a call | |
If your legs start to fail | |
And he'll come break your fall | |
With a bed full of nails | |
No need to glance back again | |
There ain't nothin' to see | |
Just this drunken old man | |
And this woman and me | |
And you've made it quite plain | |
That we're just wastin' time | |
And you say that it seems strange | |
That i'm staying behind | |
But you don't worry 'bout me | |
I can make it alone | |
'cause i got no place to be | |
And i ain't far from home |
