Lyrics for Farewell Angelina by Jeff Buckley:
| | | Artist: | Jeff Buckley |
| | Album: | Covers | | Track: | Farewell Angelina | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 77 | | | | Lyrics: | farewell angelina
the bells of the crown
are being stolen by bandits
i must follow
the sound
the triangle tingles
and the trumpets play slow
farewell angelina
the
sky is on fire
and i must go
there's no need for anger
there's no need for
blame
there's nothing to prove
ev'rything's still the same
just a table standing
empty
by the edge of the sea
farewell angelina
the sky is trembling
and i must
leave
the jacks and the queens
have forsaked the courtyard
fifty-two
gypsies
now file past the guards
in the space where the deuce
and the ace once ran
wild
farewell angelina
the sky is folding
i'll see you in a while
see the
cross-eyed pirates sitting
perched in the sun
shooting tin cans
with a sawed-off
shotgun
and the neighbors they clap
and they cheer with each blast
farewell
angelina
the sky's changing color
and i must leave fast
king kong, little
elves
on the rooftops they dance
valentino-type tangos
while the make-up man's
hands
shut the eyes of the dead
not to embarrass anyone
farewell angelina
the
sky is embarassed
and i must be gone
the machine guns are roaring
the puppets
heave rocks
the fiends nail time bombs
to the hands of the clocks
call me any name
you like
i will never deny it
farewell angelina
i must go where it's quiet | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
