The Ghost Of Paul Revere - JTE lyrics
[The Ghost Of Paul Revere - JTE lyrics]
Lost somewhere in America again
You came stumbling out the doorway
Talking like a long, lost friend
We were smoking, we were laughing
We were drowning ourselves n medicine
Well, I had never heard the story
Still I knew exactly how it would end
Oh, boy of infinite sadness
Full of fire, full of madness
Holding up a mirror for us all
Just teach me a lesson
'Cause I've been second-guessing
If the highs are really worth the fall
Because we all fall
I remember talking about your father
While Billy Bragg was singing with his son
You wept after you told me
That was something he never would have done
We got up with the curtains
You were drunk and the loudest in the crowd
I had a sneaking suspicion
It's only so you knew you could be found
Oh, boy of infinite sadness
Full of fire, full of madness
Holding up a mirror for us all
Just teach me a lesson
'Cause I've been second-guessing
If the highs are really worth the fall
Because we all fall
Oh, boy of infinite sadness
Full of fire, full of madness
Holding up a mirror for us all
Just teach me a lesson
'Cause I've been second-guessing
If the highs are really worth the fall
Oh, son of fame and misfortune
Why are you leaving us so soon?
There's so much we needed you to say
Songs of love for the lonely
Speak to each of us only
In the quiet at the end of our days
At the end of our days
