Lost Dog Street Band - September Doves lyrics
[Lost Dog Street Band - September Doves lyrics]
And there was a very sacred place
Back home where I grew
Between three old pine trees that nobody knew
I'd close my eyes and pass the
Time like youngin's often do
But now I'm long gone, completely ruined
Darlin' you and I were made
For many different things
To live and learn and lie and laugh
Fight and dance and sing
But our hearts have been so battered by
The things that we have seen
And I can feel it in the way you look at me
We could pick any old road and start again
Hell, we could change our names
And try to forget
Lord knows I'll be sorry when it's done
But circumstances shot us down
Like September doves
Circumstances shot us down
Like September doves
My grandmother's lullabies used to
Sing me to sleep
I can't sleep nowadays without liquid relief
Well if lullabies were whiskey then
My Grandma's drinks were cheap
I can't afford sleep anymore
And we were never made for love
Our souls are far too old
But loneliness needs company and a
Lost dog needs a home
So you will be the fire and
I will be the coal
Baby we can burn out of control
We could pick any old road and start again
Hell, we could change our names
And try to forget
Lord knows I'll be sorry when it's done
But circumstances shot us down
Like September doves
Circumstances shot us down
Like September doves
We could pick any old road and start again
Hell, we could change our names
And try to forget
Lord knows I'll be sorry when it's done
But circumstances shot us down
Like September doves
Circumstances shot us down
Like September doves
Back home where I grew
Between three old pine trees that nobody knew
I'd close my eyes and pass the
Time like youngin's often do
But now I'm long gone, completely ruined
Darlin' you and I were made
For many different things
To live and learn and lie and laugh
Fight and dance and sing
But our hearts have been so battered by
The things that we have seen
And I can feel it in the way you look at me
We could pick any old road and start again
Hell, we could change our names
And try to forget
Lord knows I'll be sorry when it's done
But circumstances shot us down
Like September doves
Circumstances shot us down
Like September doves
My grandmother's lullabies used to
Sing me to sleep
I can't sleep nowadays without liquid relief
Well if lullabies were whiskey then
My Grandma's drinks were cheap
I can't afford sleep anymore
And we were never made for love
Our souls are far too old
But loneliness needs company and a
Lost dog needs a home
So you will be the fire and
I will be the coal
Baby we can burn out of control
We could pick any old road and start again
Hell, we could change our names
And try to forget
Lord knows I'll be sorry when it's done
But circumstances shot us down
Like September doves
Circumstances shot us down
Like September doves
We could pick any old road and start again
Hell, we could change our names
And try to forget
Lord knows I'll be sorry when it's done
But circumstances shot us down
Like September doves
Circumstances shot us down
Like September doves
