Tom Robinson - War Baby текст песни

Исполнитель: Tom Robinson

альбом: Home From Home, Vol. 1


Only the very young and the very beautiful can be so aloof
Hanging out with the boys, all swagger and poise
I don't even care what other people are there
I just stare and stare and stare
I see your shadow in the swimming pool
I see your face in the shaving mirror
Time and time and time again
I follow your footsteps so quietly up the backstairs
And I hope, and I pray you're never going to find me there
Smooth skin and tenderness long ago on a dark night
Wish I could see you once again to remember that it was true
I wanna be still beside you, quiet and still beside you
Listening to your breathing and feeling your warmth again
War baby
War baby
War baby, I'm scared, so scared
Whatever it is you keep putting me through
I don't think I could stand another ten years of this fighting
Always stabbing and wounding only getting my own back
I don't wanna batter you to your feet and knees and elbows
When I'm kneeling by the candle at the foot of my own bed
Corresponding disasters every night on the TV
Sickening reality keeps gripping me in its guts
All my friends talk and joke and laugh about Armageddon
But like a nightmare, it's still waiting there at the end of every day
You were a war baby
You were a war baby
This means war baby
I'm scared, so scared
Whatever it is they keep putting me through
So here we are now
Back in the old country
The world done frighting and I've
Forgotten about the world outside
Out in the houses
They will finish the dead and then watch TV
Get ready for a better dream about the weekend
You and me
We're so, so in love
In the middle of this crowded room
Oh, it's gonna be so cold
I wonder which way the wind blows
When the wind blows
Oh, how much longer
War baby
And you're a war baby
Don't wanna live in another world, war baby
I'm so scared
