The Country |
| I watched my love unwind |
| How we talked all night of the things we’d find in the country |
| Smoke waiting on the pier |
| Where I saw the birds fly every year |
| They were angling |
| For the country |
| Light of day is saw it falling |
| Called me up to say that I was only a… |
| I was only seventeen |
| I could fold my flag and forget the dream of the country |
| Slow down my father said |
| Oh the flashing lights rained in my head |
| I was angry |
| For the country |
| Light of day I saw it falling |
| You called me up to say that I was only a |
| Boy I always pay for what I get |
| Oh you always pay for what you get |
| Oh they never paid for one thing |
| I saw the flame burn out |
| You said nothing ever turns around in the country |
| Can’t take another year |
| I can hope, but I can’t shake this fear |
| So forget me |
| For the country |
| Dead of night I saw you falling |
| I tried to make it right but I was only a |
| Boy, I always pay for what I get |
| Oh you always pay for what you get |
| Oh they never paid for one thing |
| I saw the flame burn out |
| You said nothing ever turns around in the country |
| Can’t take another year |
| I can hope, but I can’t shake this fear |
| So forget me |
| For the country |
| Dead of night I saw you falling |
| I tried to make it right but I was only a |
| Boy, I always pay for what I get |
| Oh you always pay for what you get |
| Oh they never paid for one thing |
| They can’t take the rhythm from heart |
| They can’t take the rhythm from heart |
| They can’t take the rhythm from heart |
| Boy, I always pay for what I get |
| Oh you always pay for what you get |
| Oh they never paid for one thing |
| I watched my love unwind |
| How we talked all night of the things we’d find in the country |
