Neil Young - Daughters lyrics
[Neil Young - Daughters lyrics]
On the streets where the streetcars
Are squeaking through the morning
The flags that are raised start to wave
Goodbye to the old people
Gathered by warnings
I stand on he corner and
Feel like a foreigner
Oh, far from the sparkling blue waters
Where the fish and the canvasses play
And the waves are as calm as my father
And the daughters are dancing all day
In the house where the housewares
Are thrown out the window
And soap opera dreams, they do scream
And the people inside can't decide
Where they will go
For the track, it is wrong, and the train
It is long
Oh, far from the sparkling blue waters
Where the fish and the canvasses play
And the waves are as calm as my father
And the daughters are dancing all day
All the diamonds are packed back
Behind in the redwoods
In the Japanese freighters back home
But I won't cut that tree 'til
I'm sure that it's deadwood
And the last leaf is fallen
And summer is gone
Oh, far from the sparkling blue waters
Where the fish and the canvasses play
And the waves are as calm as my father
And the daughters are dancing all day
And the daughters are dancing all day
Are squeaking through the morning
The flags that are raised start to wave
Goodbye to the old people
Gathered by warnings
I stand on he corner and
Feel like a foreigner
Oh, far from the sparkling blue waters
Where the fish and the canvasses play
And the waves are as calm as my father
And the daughters are dancing all day
In the house where the housewares
Are thrown out the window
And soap opera dreams, they do scream
And the people inside can't decide
Where they will go
For the track, it is wrong, and the train
It is long
Oh, far from the sparkling blue waters
Where the fish and the canvasses play
And the waves are as calm as my father
And the daughters are dancing all day
All the diamonds are packed back
Behind in the redwoods
In the Japanese freighters back home
But I won't cut that tree 'til
I'm sure that it's deadwood
And the last leaf is fallen
And summer is gone
Oh, far from the sparkling blue waters
Where the fish and the canvasses play
And the waves are as calm as my father
And the daughters are dancing all day
And the daughters are dancing all day
