Letra Lullaby For The Taken de Kimya Dawson original
Bombs are dropping, smoke fills the air I wanna duck and cover but i've gotta stay out here 'cause i know myself and if i hole up in my room I'll be consumed by the doom and the gloom So i called john 'cause i know he knows sorrow He said 'i'll be in the city tomorrow' So i go down and i watch him sing And the way he sings sends a chill right through me, yeah And now there's a mountain goat Precariously balanced on the frog stuck in my throat It says 'sometimes whispering's okay, But maybe you'd feel better if you screamed today' The lady took the baby I know she loves the baby But the baby has a daddy And his daddy loves him too How could she take the baby? Maybe she's gone crazy She won't share It's not fair There's nothing i can do The lady took the baby I know she loves the baby But the baby has a daddy And his daddy loves him too How could she take the baby? Maybe she's gone crazy She won't share It's not fair There's nothing i can do Tuesday night grandma curled up in my bed By wednesday morning my grandma was dead I was in charlotte, i took the bus home Her shoes, watch, and teeth were still in my room And as i lay me down to sleep i felt her spirit rise up through me She said 'i got to live a long eighty six years, dry your tears. I know it's hard but please let go so i can meet your grandpa in the undertow Chin up girl, you've got to be strong, and know when you're singing i'm singing along' The lady took the baby I know she loves the baby But the baby has a daddy And his daddy loves him too How could she take the baby? Maybe she's gone crazy She won't share It's not fair There's nothing i can do The lady took the baby I know she loves the baby But the baby has a daddy And his daddy loves him too How could she take the baby? Maybe she's gone crazy She won't share It's not fair There's nothing i can do Little bitty baby so far away We hope that you can come home soon When we're not together, now or ever Always remember i love you Little bitty baby so far away We hope that you can come home soon When we're not together, now or ever Always remember i love you
