Lyrics:
trust you to stay where you are.
And I just got to tell you
I do intend
To stay closer than any friend.
I just got to thank you
Once again
For
that I loved
Don't need another metaphor, it's simple enough
A wrinkle in time like the crease by your eyes
This is why they shouldn't kill off
"What did I have?" said the fine old woman
"What did I have?" this proud old woman did say
"I had four green fields, each one was a jewel
But
chances that have passed me by
Oh, I know that my life's been a failure
And I've lost everything that made life dear
And the dreams I once dreamed now
all now, it was wrong
Don't you think nineteen's too young
To be played by your dark, twisted games, when I loved you so?
I should've known
You
I loved me a lass whose hair was long
And brown as the finest stew
And she swore by the stars in the jet black night
She'd be true as the sky so
In my memory, I will always see
The town that I loved so well
Where our school played ball by the gas yard wall
And they laughed through the smoke
loved them from the start
From the start
From the start
From the start
From the start
Everything's burning down
But the grass is always green
open to pain and crossed by the rain
And I walked on a crooked crutch
I strolled all alone through a fallout zone
And came out with my soul
just over the sea, just over the sea
Oh, let me go home, oh, let me go home
I wanna be with my father once more, oh, yeah
Let me sit down by mothers
times and not so long ago
How I wondered where they'd gone
But they're back again just like a long lost friend
All the songs I loved so well
Every
With the morning light
We loved once in splendour
How tender, how tender the night
Even though our dreams may vanish
With the morning light
We
it all now, it was wrong
Don't you think nineteen's too young
To be played by your dark, twisted games when I loved you so?
I should've known
You
Alas, my love, you do me wrong,
To cast me off discourteously.
For I have loved you well and long,
Delighting in your company.
[Chorus]
I overlooked a lot of things, I knew, I should have done
I did things that I'm sorry for I lived to have my fun
But now the world that once was
I once loved a man that did me knee no good
I once loved a man that did me knee no good
One in a year stopped loving I couldn't see far I should
I
Once I had a warm and willing woman
And it never crossed my heart to cross the street
But lately baby's left me cold and hungry
For the kind of love
For I am reeling, amazed by a feeling
That's real, incredibly real
And he knew I loved him, imagine
Knew at once, I loved him, imagine
I'll be his
by the meters from the sky
But you did not die
And now the ones that you have loved
Are taking you for granted
You came so enchanted
By
my sunshine
You told me once dear you really loved me and no one else could come between
But now you've left me and you love another and you have
green
I'm with you once more, under the stars
And down by the shore, an orchestra's playing
And even the palms seem to be swaying
When they begin
a fiend by the age of eighteen
I chop a pound to the ground, went cavi on the triple beam
Once upon a time, before I used to bust rhymes
I had to scratch
We seem like passing strangers now
How can you hurry by
There were never two who loved
Half as much as you and I
We seem like passing strangers
and from their loved ones
Marched husbands and brothers and fathers and sons.
There's a fine roll of honor where the Maypole once stood,
And the ladies
