Clementines
Let us raise this glass of wine For your blood burns just like mine And we neither felt too much going home You know I never really had the mind For an ordinary life But I guess I'm going to give it a try So here goes... And I know we both had enough Drinking from this broken cup That we neither feel too much more like sherry But again, boys, to your feet One last time on Benefit Street Set aside these worried lives you've been bearing Though the years have been unkind Like a winter clementine We can only come of age in the cold Now, what small comfort we might take That we've both been born to brave Leaves us humbled, keeps us honest; we're bold And we laugh, and we sing, and we dance of the dance of the wise men And alone in the dark, we don't know what their secrets weave And I promise, I know that the poison will surely pass through you If you scrub, and you wash, then eventually you will come clean Letras de canciones Then they gather in the gloom Shadows of a darkened room Playing games of luck and fortune, they never win Don't use shiny tints of wallflowers, counting out your final hours Go on, take a swing, again And we laugh, and we sing, and we dance of the dance of the wise men And alone in the dark, we don't know what their secrets weave And I promise, I know that the poison will surely pass through you If you scrub, and you wash, then eventually you will come clean From Letras Mania
