Lamplight 歌詞

And lover, where’d you lose your patience I know you had your patience I was just a kid And clueless, you never stop to wonder If lightning strikes the thunder Or if it’s just coincidence Every time your father beat you down You told him: Dad it won’t be long And as your tiny body slept that night I had my lamplight burning strong And hated Your bedroom is a dark place, but you've broken all the doorways And now you're stuck inside But hopeful Your memory's still around though, you can see it from your window As it starts to pass you by Now I'm in your car, you hold your apples in your arms You're a friend I used to know, but you still lean against my walls Tell me beauty I won't bluff, I set my mind to worthless stuff But I was hoping you'd have the decadence, the appetite of love But that's alright, yeah that’s alright Every time your father beat you down You told him: Dad it won’t be long And as your tiny body slept that night I had my lamplight burning strong And when you came to me, and said: We gotta leave And so we took your parents' car And as your tiny body slept that night I had my lamplight burning strong And when we got away, but in a couple days We crashed in arkansas And as your tiny body slept that night I had my lamplight burning strong And when the cop cars came and took you away I knew I had to write this song And as your tiny body slept that night I had my lamplight burning strong
