Lyrics for Bobbies Gone by Emmylou Harris:
| | | Artist: | Emmylou Harris |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Bobbies Gone | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 76 | | | | Lyrics: | Beneath her clothes her heart is breaking
Spends her mornings making lines
Though her pain
is real and aching
All she owns are borrowed lines
Doesn't know which side to be
on
Though she's trying every door
Only needs the floor she sleeps on
All she asks is a
little more time
Bobbie's gone to California
I won't see her anymore
Bobbie's gone
to California
Like she did the year before
And the year before
The day she left her
shirt was clinging
To her back wet with rain
I watched her leave heard her singing
A
song she wrote when Christmas came
Bobbie's young but getting older
The face she shows
is not her own
Winter's near it's getting colder
California's called her home
again
Bobbie's gone to California
I won't see her anymore
Bobbie's gone to
California
Like she did the year before
And the year before
The mirror gives back
no reflection
Of shadow she will not see
It understands she needs protection
Of what she
swears she has to be
Bobbie's nights are empty tables
Hold her 'til she's made to
leave
Bobbie's dreams are empty fables
She makes herself believe
To be
free
Sometimes she cried because of visions
Of what she loved had all been
sold
There's not much left no one to listen
To the echoes that she holds
How could
I tell her when she's fading
She run out of a place to be
There will be no one
waiting
For the poetry of her soul
I won't see her anymore
Bobbie's gone to
California
Like she did the year before
And the year before | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
