Testo When Love Was King - The Common Linnets
Testo della canzone When Love Was King (The Common Linnets), tratta dall'album The Common Linnets (Special Edition)
When pain didn't reign and love was king
We could wash our hands of most anything
I inherited my fathers sin
I was born and raised in the midst of it
Before a preacher spoke those words in vain
And holy men would bow their head
For I was a I am
The older son of Abraham
The day I drowned in fire and storm
I found out, what I'd always known
I still remember, I still see
A heart that trusts and avoids that sadness
When pain didn't rain and love was king
My daddy was a gambler, drinking man
Showed his love with the back of his hand
Never saw him smile, not a flicker of graze
I think he buried him with momma in a Tennesse clay
The day I drowned in fire and storm
I found out, what I'd always known
And I still remember, I still see
A heart that trusts and avoids that sadness
When pain didn't reign and love was king
The day I drowned in fire and storm
I found out, what I'd always known
And I still remember, I still see
A heart that trusts and avoids that sadness
When pain didn't reign and love was king
A heart that trusts and avoids that sadness
Back when pain didn't reign and love was king
