Well Sometimes You Just Can't Stay Songtext
von Marissa Nadler

Did you give up the ghost
forever that night,
reach Angel Island
with stars as your light?

It was June of 1966,
you were last seen
with your water wings.

Did you drown in the ocean
or make your great escape,
Did you die in slow motion
off the coast of the bay?

Well you knew that you couldn′t stay
(the waves, the waves, the waves)
Well you knew that you couldn't stay
(the waves, the waves, the waves)


Planned an ocean of fate
Some great eraser
All at once I fell awake
That place is a glacier

Did you drown in the ocean
Or make your great escape
Did you die in slow motion
Off the coast of the bay

Well you knew that you couldn′t stay
(the waves, the waves, the waves)
Well you knew that you couldn't stay
(the waves, the waves, the waves)
Well you knew that you couldn't stay
(the waves, the waves, the waves)
Well you knew that you couldn′t stay
(the waves, the waves, the waves)
