When You and I Were True Songtext
von Pauline Scanlon

Oh we might as well lie down love,
Lie down and close our eyes,
We might as well go walking,
In the country of the blind,
The long grass has grown,
And the wild birds flown,
To their homes away in the blue,
And nothing"s left the same,
The whole world"s changed,
Since You and I were true.


And how can a story be ended,
When it didn"t hardly begin?
How can my glass be so empty,
When it"s filled up to the brim?
And it wasn"t always so,
It wasn"t always so,
We had something better to do,
And it didn"t always rain,
Every single day,
When You and I were true.

In the country where we"re heading love,
There is nothing but rocks and stones,
No friendly plant or animal,
No angel to guide you home,
Until the day you"ll find,
In the country of the blind,
Some wanderer just like you,
And the singing of a bird,
Nobody has heard,
Since You and I were true.


Yeah we might as well lie down love,
Lie down and close our eyes,
We might as well go walking,
In the country of the blind,
The long grass has grown,
The wild birds flown,
To their homes away in the blue,
And nothing"s left the same,
The whole world"s changed,
Since You and I were true
Since You and I were true.
