Elvis Costello - Withered & Died Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • This cruel old country has driven me down, teased me and lied.
  • Ive only sad stories to tell to this town
  • My dreams have withered and died.
  • Once I was bending the tops of the trees,
  • Kind thoughts in my head, kind voices to hear.
  • Then I took up with a girl from the west.
  • Theyd run and hide, theyd run and hide.
  • Count one to ten and shes gone like the rest.
  • My dreams have withered and died.
  • If I was a butterfly, lived for a day,
  • I could be free just blowing away.
  • Silver moon sailor and silver moonshine
  • On the water so wide, water so wide,
  • Slip from the bed of a good friend of mine
  • My dreams have withered and died.
  • Once I was bending the tops of the trees
  • Kind thoughts in my head, kind voices to hear.
  • This cruel country has driven me down, teased me and lied.
  • Teased me and lied.
  • Ive only sad stories to tell to this town.
  • My dreams have withered and died. (x3)
