Aoife O'Donovan - Hornets
текст песни

There ain't nothin' left for me here
I gotta get out
Spent the better part of twenty-nine years
Just tryin' to get out
Got no one runnin' after me
Pray these two feet carry me south

Then out of the corner of my eye
You're lookin' at me
I've got wanderlust all painted on my thigh
You're weak in the knees
Let's leave town by the frontage road
Follow the sound of the blackest crow south

Would that you were goin' away and
I was goin' with you
I'd sit myself right down
And I'd lace up my travelin' shoes
If I lose you down the road
Would you look over your shoulder?
I'll be there to have and hold you

We've only traveled seventeen miles
You wanna turn back
Don't leave your little girl in the wild
The sky's turnin' black
Play tug-o-war 'til the mornin' comes
Find the road, stick out your thumb
Hold it there, if no one comes, just run

Got no one runnin' after me
Pray these two feet carry me

Would that you were goin' away and
I was goin' with you
I'd sit myself right down
And I'd lace up my travelin' shoes
If I lose you down the road
Would you look over your shoulder?
I'll be there to have and hold you

My rations runnin' low and I'm alone
When I hit the state line
Turnin' back is the only way to go
Back to what's mine
I'll die in the bed that I was born in
Gone from this world without warnin', babe

Would that you were goin' away and
I was goin' with you
I'd sit myself right down
And I'd lace up my travelin' shoes
If I lose you down the road
Would you look over your shoulder?
I'll be there to have and hold you

Would that you were goin' away and
I was goin' with you
I'd sit myself right down
And I'd lace up my travelin' shoes
If I lose you down the road
Would you look over your shoulder?
I'll be there to have and hold you
