Flowers In The Dirt Lyrics by Hurricane Bells

Tides And Tales

0

One two three four
It's early still but the light is fading
Oh I'm in Brooklyn and it's raining
I've been going through her old mail
Oh trying to remember all the details
She was smoothing the fabric of her skirt
Oh she looked to me like flower in the dirt
But that's only just a better way to hurt
Well I've been here with her old broom
Oh I've been sweeping up our old room
And if the night brings a warning
Oh I try to forget it in the morning
In my dream I'm standing by a door
In that old blue jacket I always wore
Oh now the pain is so much greater than before
Well there's a town by the seaside
Oh she'd go swimming in the high tide
And underneath that endless blanket
Oh the sea disguised her every movement
Oh and when I lifted up the veil
Oh I was not prepared to see the serpents tail
Oh and tt'sso hard now to even tell the tail
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
Well maybe I was just pretending
Oh I had secrets worth defending
Well there were nights alone in silence
Oh there were words that were like violence
Oh and when she couldn't take it anymore
Oh she stood up and she walked out through the door
So now I don't think we're getting married anymore
Well I'll go; it's nearly daylight
Oh I appreciate your incite
Now I'm finished with this letter
Oh now I've said it I feel better
But so soon it will be sealed and on it's way
And I'm going to get started on my day
(wooo)
Oh and it's going to be different today
(la la la la la la la la)
It's going to be different
(la la la la la la la la)
If only for the one that got away
