Lily Talmers - Francis lyrics
[Lily Talmers - Francis lyrics]
Francis, I’m having a nightmare
I can’t understand it
I dreamt I jumped for just to fall
Behind a cold and concrete wall
Forsaken from the garden that could last us
And Francis, I’ll ask something tragic
If you’ll please console me
If you’re to smile without me there
Or catch another’s lonesome glare
Would you at least remember me as holy?
Moon’s out, spotlight
Left bound, turned right on your street
In your drive gal, I must say something
I warned you, darling
Francis, I know that I’m more of
A child than a mother
So I loved you til the morning ran
When dawn collapsed and rules began
We won the night for just to lose each other
Hearts beat, hummed low
Whispered through the window
Of that room that you know
How it slips so slowly, slowly, slowly
Boy, have I had it
You know that I barely can stand it
That with the fuel of borrowed truth
We managed to escape the youth
That gave us the excuse to run the gamut
See you sometime bright eyes, dark minds
Eyes ahead, I must drive
I can’t understand it
I dreamt I jumped for just to fall
Behind a cold and concrete wall
Forsaken from the garden that could last us
And Francis, I’ll ask something tragic
If you’ll please console me
If you’re to smile without me there
Or catch another’s lonesome glare
Would you at least remember me as holy?
Moon’s out, spotlight
Left bound, turned right on your street
In your drive gal, I must say something
I warned you, darling
Francis, I know that I’m more of
A child than a mother
So I loved you til the morning ran
When dawn collapsed and rules began
We won the night for just to lose each other
Hearts beat, hummed low
Whispered through the window
Of that room that you know
How it slips so slowly, slowly, slowly
Boy, have I had it
You know that I barely can stand it
That with the fuel of borrowed truth
We managed to escape the youth
That gave us the excuse to run the gamut
See you sometime bright eyes, dark minds
Eyes ahead, I must drive
