Levi Stubbs' Tears |
With the money from her accident |
She bought herself a mobile home |
So at least she could get some enjoyment |
Out of being alone |
No one could say that she was left up on the shelf |
It’s you and me against the World kid, she mumbled to herself |
When the World falls apart some things stay in place |
Levi Stubbs' tears run down his face |
She ran away from home in her mother’s best coat |
She was married before she was even entitled to vote |
And her husband is one of those blokes |
The sort who only laughes at his own jokes |
The sort a war takes away |
And when there wasn’t a war, he left anyway |
When the World falls apart some things stay in place |
Levi Stubbs' tears run down his face |
Norman Whitfild and Barratt Strong |
Are here to make right everything that’s wrong |
Holland and Holland and Lamont Dosier too |
Are here to make it all okay with you |
One dark night he came home from the sea |
And put a hole in her body where no hole should be It hurt her more to see him walking out the door |
And though they stitched her back together |
They left her heart in pieces on the floor |
When the World falls apart some things stay in place |
She takes off the Four Tops tape and puts it back in its case |
When the World falls apart some things stay in place |
Levi Stubbs' tears… |
