Connie Converse - We Lived Alone (Doubletracked Version) lyrics
[Connie Converse - We Lived Alone Doubletracked Version lyrics]
We lived alone, my house and I
We had the earth, we had the sky
I had a lamp against the dark
And I was happy as a lark
We lived alone, my house and I
(I had a stove and a window screen)
We had the earth, we had the sky
(I had a table painted green)
I had a lamp against the dark
(Sat on a chair with a broken back)
And I was happy as a lark
(Wearing a pretty potato sack)
I had a stove and a window screen
(I had a rug upon the floor)
I had a table painted green
(And roses grew around my door)
Sat on a chair with a broken back
(Though my estate was never high)
Wearing a pretty potato sack
(My house was snug and so was I)
I had a rug upon the floor
(We lived alone, my house and I)
And roses grew around my door
(We had the earth, we had the sky)
I had a job, my wants were few
(I had a job, my wants were few)
They were until I wanted you
(They were until I wanted you)
And when I set my eyes on you
Nothing else would do nothing else would do
We had the earth, we had the sky
I had a lamp against the dark
And I was happy as a lark
We lived alone, my house and I
(I had a stove and a window screen)
We had the earth, we had the sky
(I had a table painted green)
I had a lamp against the dark
(Sat on a chair with a broken back)
And I was happy as a lark
(Wearing a pretty potato sack)
I had a stove and a window screen
(I had a rug upon the floor)
I had a table painted green
(And roses grew around my door)
Sat on a chair with a broken back
(Though my estate was never high)
Wearing a pretty potato sack
(My house was snug and so was I)
I had a rug upon the floor
(We lived alone, my house and I)
And roses grew around my door
(We had the earth, we had the sky)
I had a job, my wants were few
(I had a job, my wants were few)
They were until I wanted you
(They were until I wanted you)
And when I set my eyes on you
Nothing else would do nothing else would do
