All The Things She Gave Me
Waterboys All the things all the things she gave me all the things she gave me all the things in a big brown box tied it with ribbon I wrapped them up drove to the docks checked my time by the old town clock all the things... I saw the watchman he was blowing into as he walked to the car cupped hands he said "Where do you think you're drivin' to son? All good folks are in bed the day's work is done" I said I'm just lookin' for all the things someplace to burn all the things that she... all the things that she gave me where I won't have to see them? where can I hide them where do I put them It's dark as hell here this city's gown cold the devil's in drag playing poker with souls the lots are all empty the last man's out the moon's made of cheese when I go to sleep I'll be dreaming about and God is a boy scout all the things... then I'll dream about churches with cathedrals and candles great tall spires chimneys and choirs I'll dream about where I set fire that place all the things all the things that she |
