Joan Baez - Crack in the Mirror lyrics
[Joan Baez - Crack in the Mirror lyrics]
You say you don't remember this
Thing she can't forget
You say that it's been too damn long
Time to bury the hatchet
And if it made a difference well
You would say you're sorry
It really makes you wonder why
You should even bother
There's a mirror in the house
At the edge of town
There's a crack in the mirror all fall down
She was just a baby (seems so long ago)
Left a little crazy (seems so long ago)
No one in that big
Old house heard the baby cry
Hide your guilt in ignorance
Hide your guilt in ignorance
Hide your guilt in ignorance
No one has to lie
There's a mirror in the house
At the edge of town
There's a crack in the mirror all fall down
For ten long years he watched her grow
For ten long years he watched her
Nobody would ever know the places
That he touched her
No one in her daddy's house
Heard her make a sound now there's
Blood on everybody's hands
Blood on everybody's hands
Blood on everybody's hands
(Gonna come around again)
There's a mirror in the house
At the edge of town
There's a crack in the mirror all fall
Now you say don't remember
This thing she can't forget
You say that your life must go on
Time to bury the hatchet
And if she was so damned afraid
You're sure you would remember
Children will exaggerate
Children will exaggerate
Children will exaggerate
Children will exaggerate
There's a mirror in the house
At the edge of town
There's a crack in the mirror
(no one will find me)
There's a mirror in the house
At the edge of town
There's a crack in the mirror
(no one will find me) all fall down
No one will find me no one will find me
No one will find me no one will find me
No one will find me
Thing she can't forget
You say that it's been too damn long
Time to bury the hatchet
And if it made a difference well
You would say you're sorry
It really makes you wonder why
You should even bother
There's a mirror in the house
At the edge of town
There's a crack in the mirror all fall down
She was just a baby (seems so long ago)
Left a little crazy (seems so long ago)
No one in that big
Old house heard the baby cry
Hide your guilt in ignorance
Hide your guilt in ignorance
Hide your guilt in ignorance
No one has to lie
There's a mirror in the house
At the edge of town
There's a crack in the mirror all fall down
For ten long years he watched her grow
For ten long years he watched her
Nobody would ever know the places
That he touched her
No one in her daddy's house
Heard her make a sound now there's
Blood on everybody's hands
Blood on everybody's hands
Blood on everybody's hands
(Gonna come around again)
There's a mirror in the house
At the edge of town
There's a crack in the mirror all fall
Now you say don't remember
This thing she can't forget
You say that your life must go on
Time to bury the hatchet
And if she was so damned afraid
You're sure you would remember
Children will exaggerate
Children will exaggerate
Children will exaggerate
Children will exaggerate
There's a mirror in the house
At the edge of town
There's a crack in the mirror
(no one will find me)
There's a mirror in the house
At the edge of town
There's a crack in the mirror
(no one will find me) all fall down
No one will find me no one will find me
No one will find me no one will find me
No one will find me
