Poor Henry

(앨범: This Time Tomorrow - 2020)

One day Henry went out to buy cigarettes
That's how it started then
That's how it started then
When he came back he proposed and she said yes
That's how it happened then
That's how it happened then

Mary called her cousins on her mother's side
That's when he changed his mind
That's when he changed his mind
Gave no explanation which was so unkind
That's how he broke her heart
That's how he broke her heart

Now poor Henry wanders the valleys
Till they turn to stone
Three torches, twenty-four batteries
Won't last all that long

He was no good everyone could see but you
That's what her friends all say
That's what her friends all say
Mary nods her head but knows it isn't true
He was a decent man
He drove an ice-cream van

She had always planned on being quite the bride
With Henry at her side
With Henry at her side
Henry really loved her but he hated fuss
That's how he broke her heart
That's why he broke her heart

Now poor Henry wanders the valleys
Till they turn to stone
Three torches, twenty-four batteries
Won't last all that long

Poor Mary shops in the valley
For some brand new clothes
Three tank tops, twenty-four dresses
In case Henry calls

And that was so unkind
That was so unkind
Poor Henry changed his mind
Poor Henry changed his mind
