The Lost Trailers - Fairweather Queen lyrics
[The Lost Trailers - Fairweather Queen lyrics]
She showed up on my doorstep
With teardrops in her eyes
She said that she'd been lonely
And she'd like to stay the night
I said, "This is the third time
That you've created such a scene"
But I can't close the door
On my fair-weather queen
Cause when the sun is out she is always there
And when the grass is green
She is dancing on air
When my pockets are full
She is my everything
But when it rains she is the first to leave
When it rains she is my Fairweather Queen
She emptied out her pockets
The air was stained with lent and ash
I knew she'd had her last dance
Before she thought about coming back
Well, I see a storm a brewin'
The wind is blowing from the east
You got to take the rain with the sunshine
And if you can't you've got to leave
Cause when the sun is out she is always there
And when the grass is green
She is dancing on air
When my pockets are full
She is my everything
But when I'm broke she is the first to leave
When I'm broke she is my fair-weather queen
And who's to say if she will be there
When that wind comes tearing through
I don't care, no I have said my peace
And in the end, that's all a man can do
When your Fairweather Queen comes to you
With teardrops in her eyes
She said that she'd been lonely
And she'd like to stay the night
I said, "This is the third time
That you've created such a scene"
But I can't close the door
On my fair-weather queen
Cause when the sun is out she is always there
And when the grass is green
She is dancing on air
When my pockets are full
She is my everything
But when it rains she is the first to leave
When it rains she is my Fairweather Queen
She emptied out her pockets
The air was stained with lent and ash
I knew she'd had her last dance
Before she thought about coming back
Well, I see a storm a brewin'
The wind is blowing from the east
You got to take the rain with the sunshine
And if you can't you've got to leave
Cause when the sun is out she is always there
And when the grass is green
She is dancing on air
When my pockets are full
She is my everything
But when I'm broke she is the first to leave
When I'm broke she is my fair-weather queen
And who's to say if she will be there
When that wind comes tearing through
I don't care, no I have said my peace
And in the end, that's all a man can do
When your Fairweather Queen comes to you
