Testo The Good Old World - Tom Waits
Testo della canzone The Good Old World (Tom Waits), tratta dall'album Night on Earth
When I was a boy, the moon was a pearl
The sun was a yellow gold
But when I was a man, the wind blew cold
The hills were upside down
But now that I have gone from here
There's no place I'd rather be
Than to float my chances on the tide
Back in the good old world
On October's last, I'll fly back home
Rolling down winding way
And all I've got's a pocketful
Of flowers on my grave
But now summer is gone
I remember it best
Back in the good old world
I remember when she held my hand
We walked home alone in the rain
How pretty her mouth, how soft her hair
Nothing can be the same
And there's a rose upon her breast
Where I long to lay my head
And her hair was so yellow and the wine was so red
Back in the good old world
There's a rose upon her breast
Where I long to lay my head
And her hair was so yellow and the wine was so red
Back in the good old world
