Barton Hartshorn - I Got Away (but you’re here to stay) текст песни

Исполнитель: Barton Hartshorn

альбом: Not What I Expected to Hope For


Well girls they go for passion and thrillers
And they wonder who, whodunnit now
They're suckers for autopsies
And the killer with the quiff
They're out in council houses on the lay-by
Swapping tales and cigarettes
They're watching the detectives
And they watch their silhouettes
Yeah
Oh hopefully, so hopefully
We'd tie our shoes in a knot
You'd say "Go!" and ready or not
We'd both run with all that we'd got from this town
Oh nothing happens here
It was a choice that you made
Yeah years later that's what you'd say
That I got away but you're here to stay in this town
Only dust can settle here
We'd sit and watch the lasses and the fellas
As they'd set up on the village green
And once a year we'd blow it
On a night out at the fair
Yeah
We'd try our moves on Lorna and Rebecca
But it never seemed to get us none
And when I think back
All we ever really did was stare
Yeah
Oh Hopefully, so hopefully
We'd tie our shoes in a knot
You'd say "Go!" and ready or not
We'd both run with all that we'd got from this town
Oh nothing happens here
It was a choice that you made
Yeah years later that's what you'd say
That I got away but you're here to stay in this town
Only dust can settle here
I picture you in the pub here in the corner
And you wonder what's become of me
But now I see you really don't remember me at all
Your name was always in the first eleven
That was pinned up on the village green
But now you're only coaching
Cause they tell you you're too old
No
Oh Hopefully, so hopefully
We'd tie our shoes in a knot
You'd say "Go!" and ready or not
We'd both run with all that we'd got from this town
Oh nothing happens here
It was a choice that you made
Yeah years later that's what you'd say
That I got away but you're here to stay in this town
Only dust can settle here
Only dust can settle here
Only dust can settle here
Well girls they go for passion and thrillers
They're suckers for autopsies
And the killer with the quiff
