Sheryl Crow - Mississippi songtekst

Je score:

Your days are numbered  so are mine
 Time is piling up  we struggle and we scrape
 All boxed in  nowhere to escape
 The city's just a jungle  more games to play
 All trapped in the heart of it trying to get away
 I was raised in the country  been working in the town
 I've been in trouble since I set my suitcase down
 I got nothing for you  had nothing before
 Don't even have anything for myself anymore
 Sky's full of fire and the rain is pouring down
 There's nothing you can sell me, so I'll see you around
 All my powers of expression and thoughts so sublime
 Could never do you justice, reason, or rhyme
 There's only one thing that I did wrong
 I stayed in Mississippi a day too long
 The devil's in the alley, the mule kicking in the stall
 Say anything you wanna, I've heard it all
 I was thinking about the things that she said
 I was dreaming I was sleeping in your bed
 Walking through the leaves falling from the trees
 Feel like a stranger nobody sees
 So many things we never will undo
 I know you're sorry, well, I'm sorry too
 Some people will offer you their hand, and some won't
 Last night I knew you, tonight I don't
 I need something strong to distract my mind
 I'm gonna look at you 'til my eyes go blind
 Well, I got here following the southern star
 I crossed that river just to be where you are
 There's only one thing that I did wrong
 I stayed in Mississippi a day too long
 Well, my ship's been split to splinter - it's sinking fast
 I'm drowning in the poison - got no future, got no past
 But my heart's not weary - it's light and it's free
 I've got nothing but affection for those who have sailed with me
 Everybody's moving if they ain't already there
 Everybody's gotta move somewhere
 Well, stick with me baby, anyhow
 Things should start to get interesting right about now
 Well, my clothes are wet, they're tight on my skin
 Not tight as the corner I painted myself in
 I know that fortune is waiting to be kind
 So give me your hand and say you'll be mine
 The emptiness is endless - cold as clay
 You can always come back, but you can't come back all the way
 Well, there's only one thing that I did wrong
 I stayed in Mississippi a day too long
 Yeah, the only thing that I did wrong
 I stayed in Mississippi a day too long
 The only thing that I did wrong
 I stayed in Mississippi a day too long
 Woo
