The Country 歌詞

I watched my love unwind How we talked all night of the things we’d find in the country Smoke waiting on the pier Where I saw the birds fly every year they were angling For the country Light of day is saw it falling Called me up to say that I was only a I was only seventeen I could fold my flag and forget the dream of the country Slow down my father said Oh the flashing lights rained in my head I was angry For the country Light of day I saw it falling You called me up to say that I was only a Boy I always pay for what I get Oh you always pay for what you get Oh they never paid for one thing I saw the flame burn out You said nothing ever turns around in the country Can't take another year I can hope, but I can't shake this fear So forget me For the country Dead of night I saw you falling I tried to make it right but I was only a Boy I always pay for what I get Oh you always pay for what you get Oh they never paid for one thing They can’t take the rhythm from heart They can’t take the rhythm from heart They can’t take the rhythm from heart Boy I always pay for what I get Oh you always pay for what you get Oh they never paid for one thing I watched my love unwind How we talked all night of the things we’d find in the country
