Lady Blue · letra

I can't explain why I cannot give my heart back. I left it with my Lady Blue. What was her name? She flew in, I caught her. I was a fool to let her go.
She goes, shes goes with her hollow bones, she goes. Every year she's back for the season. I have to keep my windows closed. I couldn't shake what my mother warned me of. Try to keep me safe between the pews. I stepped away, saw that Love was outside. She wore a name, just a different one.
They all say, 'I'm sorry boy, you shouldn't fly with her kind. They found a way out of God's love.'
She goes, shes goes with her hollow bones. Pretty, he's gettin pretty old. Keepin it pretty's gettin pretty old. He's getting pretty old.
Round and round we go, we go around. Round and round we go, she wont stay dead. Stay down.
There's an awful lot of holes I gotta dig, when I know you're gonna climb back up again. Stay dead. Stay down.
Stay dead. Stay down. Stay across the sea, but I know where you'll be. When I look around and round we go, we go around. Round and round we go, she won't stay dead. Stay down.
Radio roar, dancing on the bar. Oh-ho, you know you are. You call em' to the door, hookem' in the jaw. Just for tonight, right?
But maybe when you're bored with the easy call, and when I can't afford another empty touch, maybe then we'll board our ships with a couple crashing hearts.
Round and round we go, we go around. Round and round we go, she stay dead. Stay down. Round and round we go, we go around. Round and round we go, she won't get out of my head. Stay in the ground. She won't get out of my head. Stay in the ground. She won't stay dead. She won't stay down. She won't stay dead. She won't stay down. She won't stay dead.(She goes.) She won't stay down. (She goes.) She won't stay.
