Song | The Governess |
Artist | Metric |
Album | Pagans in Vegas |
[00:15.03] | Who did you say you were? |
[00:17.45] | I didn't catch your name |
[00:21.08] | Falling down to earth |
[00:23.80] | Down from a higher plane |
[00:27.08] | Oh, it's been decades Oh, |
[00:29.69] | Say, what did you see? |
[00:32.86] | Oh, I've been so lonely Oh, |
[00:35.45] | Won't you keep me company? |
[00:38.33] | |
[00:50.82] | Do you remember me? |
[00:53.50] | We met out on the farm |
[00:56.97] | By the fire, you spoke to me |
[00:59.48] | And held me in your arms |
[01:03.18] | The songs you played for me |
[01:05.54] | I long to understand |
[01:08.86] | All along the watchtower |
[01:11.38] | And castles made of sand |
[01:14.64] | When there was a wilderness |
[01:17.48] | we wandered wild and free |
[01:20.70] | Guilt, she is the governess |
[01:23.37] | that guides me back to grief |
[01:26.62] | What if we were dumb enough to spend eternity |
[01:32.56] | Gathering the garbage washed up on the beach? |
[01:39.21] | |
[02:08.28] | Do you remember me? |
[02:10.32] | We spoke by telephone |
[02:13.67] | The bad connection had a meaning of its own |
[02:19.51] | Of all the good and all the stupid shit I've done |
[02:25.60] | The worst was all for me |
[02:28.04] | Not hurting anyone |
[02:31.62] | |
[02:55.21] | When there was a wilderness |
[02:58.13] | I wandered wild and free |
[03:01.17] | Guilt, she is the governess |
[03:03.96] | that guides me back to grief |
[03:07.35] | Wish that I was old enough to end the century |
[03:13.24] | Gather all the garbage washed up on the beach |
[03:21.94] |
[00:15.03] | Who did you say you were? |
