Queen of Carter's Bar Songtext
von Bella Hardy

Watching from the corner of the bar
Remembering the night I found you at my door
You were running away, drenched by the storm
I said "Listen to the thunder, tells you what you need to know"

The best thing you can give is as good as you get
Another day′s coming, and I'm not done yet

We circled round the sun, and you grew wild and free
With the barn owls and the stars keeping company
Then you woke from a dream and I was bad luck
And she was plucking at my roses, doe-eyed, red-lipped and moon-struck


The best thing you can give is as good as you get
Another day′s coming, and I'm not done yet

But I can't help remembering
How once you were my own
But when you gave your heart to me
I should have swapped it out for stone

Instead I′m sitting in the corner here in Carter′s Bar
And I'm watching you pretend to be the things you aren′t
First you were a lion, then a snake, then a black dog
But the truth of you has faded, I don't know you anymore

The best thing you can give is as good as you get
Another day′s coming, and I'm not done yet
