Waxahatchee - Rose, 1956 lyrics
[Waxahatchee - Rose, 1956 lyrics]
Sharp hangover, it is Christmas Eve
It fades and evaporates
Passing the trains and lakes and trees
Your breaths are short and urgent
And it is unsettling
'Cause you got married when you were fifteen
Fifteen
Now I hide out from telephone
Wires at Waxahatchee Creek your body
Weak from smoke and tar
And subsequent disease
You got married when you were fifteen
Fifteen no miscalculation
Each other's only living means
Your arms wane thinner
And your legs surrender
Sunlight probing, it is Christmas Eve
No stitch of shade
We pass by lakes and big mimosa trees
Your breaths are short and urgent
And it is unsettling
You got married when you were fifteen
It fades and evaporates
Passing the trains and lakes and trees
Your breaths are short and urgent
And it is unsettling
'Cause you got married when you were fifteen
Fifteen
Now I hide out from telephone
Wires at Waxahatchee Creek your body
Weak from smoke and tar
And subsequent disease
You got married when you were fifteen
Fifteen no miscalculation
Each other's only living means
Your arms wane thinner
And your legs surrender
Sunlight probing, it is Christmas Eve
No stitch of shade
We pass by lakes and big mimosa trees
Your breaths are short and urgent
And it is unsettling
You got married when you were fifteen
