First You Think Your Fortune's Lovely
Everything's so restless The wind has come again Blowing me so far I think I see a star First you think your fortune's lovely And you fly out through the door Grandmama I feel so lonely My rapture's painted on the floor The roads lead all to Jacob's kitchen I'm sitting moon eyed at the table Sitting blank-eyed by the door Oh Lord, do you really think I'm able Well I chose this love completely When you took away the charm Set your mind on breaking burdens Said you done no one no harm I feel a bit like floating water Headed for the rocks at bay Crash upon some ocean liner Comes upon my lonesome way Thought I see your eyes a-flashing Thunder in your hair I burnt a match for your complexion The lights went out and you weren't there Seated by the ranch I'm owning Staring at the cellophane Letras de cancionesSomebody came in for a question I poured a glass out in the rain The reason I have been accepted Is that I failed to come on strong Found a chair beside a window Found a place where I belong Inside myself there is no question Just the jangle of our brain Three times four is twenty-seven Only fragments still remain I curse the day I found my freedom You took the mirror from the wall Placed it in a single suitcase Pointed down a hollow hall You said you see your true direction I'll be there behind the sun And I'll go with you in the springtime When all your travels have been done From Letras Mania
