On The Other Side, Of The World

歌词

There's a blue eyed girl with a red bow tie
And a string of pearls with one good eye
In a rainy town the chimney smoke will curl
No one likes clowns on the other side of the world
And the children know she'll never let me go.
There's a one legged priest that tangos with the farmers wife
Beauty and the beast is taking her own life
And a tear on a letter back home turns into a lake of your own
And a crow turns into a girl on the other side of the world
And she tastes like the sea and she's waiting for me
In the spring the ****s will show that he brought back the only rose
And he gave it to his girl on the other side of the world.
And I drink champagne from your thin blue veins
She visits his grave wearing her mother's shawl
Should I shave or end it all.
There's an old sailor song that the children know
As their fingers curl around the other side of the world
On a bone white mare lost in kathleen's hair
In the spring the ****s will show that he brought back the only rose
And he gave it to his girl on the other side of the world.
