Settled Down Songtext
von Mandolin Orange

These excuses are useless
We′ve run aground again
Another day in the gutter
Making one for every year we've spent together

My baby used to sing all night
Now she′s sound asleep
She settled down with a ramblin' man
And found the gentle side of me

We'll make time, and take time
But maybe I′m no good
′Cause I have showed her these lies
Long enough to know now that I should


My baby used to sing all night
Now she's sound asleep
She settled down with a ramblin′ man
And found the gentle side of me

Moments, just fleeting times
With little wings of gold
Remind us of how rare we find
True love in every sign

We're gettin′ older
My baby used to sing all night
Now she's sound asleep
She settled down with a ramblin′ man
And found the gentle side of me
