Tailor Lyrics by Emily Rohm

Traveling Show

2021

[Verse 1]
When he said
When he sa-a-id
That he liked my cut of hair
I became a barber
When he said
When he sa-a-id
That my scent was au-dé-fleur
I became a perfum-er
When he said
When he sa-a-id
That he liked the clothes I wore
I became a tailor
[Chorus]
And I sewed a party dress
In and out
In and out
With a needle and thread
In and out
In and out
In my head the thoughts of him
In and out
In and out
And in
[Verse 2]
When he said
When he sa-a-id
He was lеa-ving
I took up violin
When he said
When hе sa-a-id
That my body he'd not miss
I became sculptress
When he sa-id
When he sa-ai-ai-d
That my face he'd soon forget
I became a poet
[Chorus]
And a fiddle and bow
In and out
In and out
And a chisel and stone
In and out
In and o-ou-ut
And the fountain pen
In and out
In and out
And in
[Verse 3]
Now that he's gone away
There isn't anyone to say if I am a [???]
Or a crazy woman
Now that he's gone away
There isn't anyone to say if I am a dia~mond
Or a dime a dozen
[Bridge]
Didn't I gleam in my father's eye?[¿]
Who am I ?
Didn't I split my mother's side?[¿]
Who am I ?
Didn't I?
Didn't I drink her nipple dry?
Who am I ?
And no-one taught me how to cry
Who am I?
How to cry for what I want
In the night
Who am I?
Didn't I cry, cry
Who am I?
Who am I?
[Outro]
When he said
When he sa-a-id
That he liked the clothes I wore
I became a tailor
