Текст песни Ani Difranco - Providence
Ani Difranco - Providence слова песни
who knew
at this party that I
would walk in and I`d see you.
I guess now
we could just get drunk
yeah, that could be our excuse
you could slip
from out of nowhere
i could be there to catch your fall
we could laugh
at ourselves
and the writing that`s on the wall
it`s a narrow margin
just room enough for regret
in the inch and a half between
hey, how ya been?
and
can I kiss you yet?
so we talk, like
nervous neighbors over a tall fence
true love, but for the lack of providence
but I just got one more
thing to tell you
`cuz words are vitamins
and life is short
and I know when we get up
to the front office
We`re gonna have to fill out
a full report
and the first question will be
what were you thinking?
and the next question will be
what did you say?
then they`re gonna check to see
if the answers to one and two
matched up much
along the way
in the interest of poetry
and the cowboy movie
that`s you and me
I`m back on the horse now
and I am riding
I am striding so effortlessly
what I mean is
it`s late
much to late for us
and I`m fixing to go home
with just my conscious
and a bitter sense of irony
as my chaperone
true love, but for the lack of providence.
