David Gray - Kathleen lyrics
Your rating:
Lay down my head by the wayside My worn out shoes Quite why she went I can't decide Yeah but I sure could use One plate of food steaming and hot Clean linen ironed On a fresh made bed but I ain't got One salty dime, one salty dime Just close your eyes, it won't take long It won't hurt a bit Telling myself I could be strong Or some such brave bullshit Trucks are roaring by, I'm a red ghost In their tail light gleam I'm a tumbleweed, I'm a spit roast Turning in your flame Oh my darling Kathleen Cars they sound like waves that are breaking On some distant shore I gazed so long into the great aching sky It seemed like I wasn't here no more My rushing blood was a river My eyes two stars My blowing hair all a quiver A whispering field of grass That murmurs as you pass Oh my darling Kathleen That whispers out your name Oh my darling Kathleen Oh my darling Kathleen
