Pretty Scars
(专辑: In The Next Life - 2016)
One, two One, two, three, four One, two One, two, three, four I
was born on a
Friday back in 1976 To a
singer and a
teacher Who at the
time were a
perfect fit And they gave me what I
needed To go out on the
road And their song still ring like an echo I
was born on a
Saturday back in 1992 I
barely even kissed a
guy Until someday I
met you And you played me Leonard Cohen On a
southside bedroom floor It was then, I
knew what the
dark was for And I
stay here forever Like the
strum on your first guitar Time gave me steady wings Gave me love Gave me all these pretty scars I
was born on a
Wednesday back in 1999 Your heart stopped beating Right before you were alive And part of me last with you In your own-being embrace I
was changed ever since that day And I
stay here forever Like the
gleam on a
silver star Time, like an endless swing [?] love Gives me all these pretty scars They were born, on the
first of May Once and twice again The
tears were streaming My head in my husband's hands I
thought I
knew of love But kind of knocked you off of your feet But man, I
didn't know anything
