Nina Gordon - Bones And A Name lyrics
Your rating:
Rolling through the canyon blasting heartbreaker I see your famous face riding next to me We smile at each other 'cause we know we know each other But damn if I'm going to talk to you again I always thought that you were funny I always thought we could be friends But the way you treated her in the end... All the horses and all the men Couldn't bring her back again We tried so hard We couldn't save her day All the millions and billions Of stars that shine into her eyes Are barely bright enough to light her way So she covered herself with sorrow and shame And smoke and mirrors and fame And fake love, angry love, bad love, and sad love And damn if I didn't almost do the same And now sometimes I think I see her And I can almost hear her cry I hear those chilling words she chose to say goodbye All the horses and all the men Couldn't bring her back again We tried so hard We couldn't save her day All the millions and billions Of stars that shine into her eyes Are barely bright enough to light her way He was predictable, cliche, and cruel to you He made it ugly, and he made it high-school He said I love you, I need you, I want you, I'll feed you I get you, I've got you, I'll catch you and I'll keep you My sweet, you will never be sad again He said my sweet, you will never be sad again All the horses and all the men Couldn't bring her back again We tried so hard We couldn't save her day All the millions and billions Of stars that shine into her eyes I swear sometimes I can almost hear her say We're just bones and a name We all go out the way we came So don't you try to tell me that love is all we need
