Cattails (Live at The Bunker Studio) Lyrics

作词 : Adrianne Lenker

作曲 : Adrianne Lenker

Caroline, Caroline

I never could leave you to struggle

Hold the line, hold the line

I'll be there on the double

In time, in time

Everyone does see trouble

And you don't need to know why when you cry

You don't need to know why

You don't need to know why when you cry

Violet's eyes, Violet plays

Going back home to the Great Lakes

Where the cattail sways

With the lonesome loon

Riding that train in late June

With the windows wide by my side

With the windows wide

With the windows wide by my side

 

And the clusters fell, like an empty bell

Meteor shower at the motel

Where the empty space is a saving grace

Making good time and doing well

Still the question sings, like Saturn's rings

Maybe she knows and she won't tell

But you don't need to know why when you cry

You don't need to know why

You don't need to know why when you cry

 

And I find you there in your country flair

Middle of the river in a lawn chair

With your wrinkled hands and your silver hair

Leaving here soon and you know where

To where the cattail sways with the lonesome loon

You'll be riding that train in late June

With the windows wide by your side

With the windows wide

With the windows wide by your side

You don't need to know why

 

You don't need to know why when you cry
