The Dressmaker’s Girl Lyrics by Carter Tanton

Jettison the Valley

0

[Verse]
It's a long and cold night when the fire goes out for good
Not your friends or your mother can tell you that it gets good
I'm holding out for time to turn black magic white
Every morning I wake up hoping it's a bad dream
And I look for the patience to help my baby see
Just a little time to turn that little light
[Chorus]
So baby, where have you gone
Where you gone, where you gone now?
This hell won't let me let you go to the unknown
Baby, where have you gone
Where you gone, where you gone now?
Just trying to find your place in the middle now
So where you gone now?
This hell won't let me let you go
[Verse]
You got me living down by the water, you ain't welcome here
With a view of the harbor, hoping it'll steer me clear
In just a little time, I'll solve this riddle right
Every morning I wake up hoping you're a bad dream
And I look for patience, just enough to help me see
It takes just a little time to turn black magic white
[Chorus]
So baby, where have you gone
Where you gone, where you gone now?
This hell won't let me let you go to the unknown
Baby, where have you gone
Where you gone, where you gone now?
You're trying to find your place in the middle now
So where you gone now?
This hell won't let me let you go
[Outro]
'Cause every morning I wake and it's a bad dream
Got me living down by the water and you ain't welcome here
Every morning I wake up
'Cause every morning I wake up wish you were a bad dream
Just a bad dream, just a bad dream
Every morning I wake up
Every morning I wake up
