The Grateful Dead - Blow Away lyrics
[The Grateful Dead - Blow Away lyrics]
A man and a woman come together as strangers
When they part they're
Usually strangers still
It's like a practical joke played
On us by our maker
Empty bottles that can't be filled
Baby, who's to say it should have
Been different now that it's done
Baby, who's to say that it should have been
Anyway baby, who's to say that it even
Matters in the long run
Give it just a minute and it will blow away
It'll blow away
You fancy me to be the
Master of your feelings
You barely bruise me with your looks to kill
Though I admit we were sometimes
Brutal in our dealings
I never held you against your will
Baby, who's to say it should have
Been different now that it's done
Baby, who's to say that it should have been
Anyway baby, who's to say that it even
Matters in the long run
Give it just a minute and it will blow away
It'll blow away
Your case against me is
So very clearly stated
I plead no contest, I just turn and shrug
I've come to figure
All importance overestimated
You must mean water when you beg for blood
Baby, who's to say it should have
Been different now that it's done
Baby, who's to say that it should have been
Anyway baby, who's to say that it even
Matters in the long run
Give it just a minute and it will blow away
It'll blow away
Like a feather in a whirlwind blow away
Just as sure as the world spins blow away
When they part they're
Usually strangers still
It's like a practical joke played
On us by our maker
Empty bottles that can't be filled
Baby, who's to say it should have
Been different now that it's done
Baby, who's to say that it should have been
Anyway baby, who's to say that it even
Matters in the long run
Give it just a minute and it will blow away
It'll blow away
You fancy me to be the
Master of your feelings
You barely bruise me with your looks to kill
Though I admit we were sometimes
Brutal in our dealings
I never held you against your will
Baby, who's to say it should have
Been different now that it's done
Baby, who's to say that it should have been
Anyway baby, who's to say that it even
Matters in the long run
Give it just a minute and it will blow away
It'll blow away
Your case against me is
So very clearly stated
I plead no contest, I just turn and shrug
I've come to figure
All importance overestimated
You must mean water when you beg for blood
Baby, who's to say it should have
Been different now that it's done
Baby, who's to say that it should have been
Anyway baby, who's to say that it even
Matters in the long run
Give it just a minute and it will blow away
It'll blow away
Like a feather in a whirlwind blow away
Just as sure as the world spins blow away
