Townes Van Zandt - Sad Cinderella слова песни
By townes van zandtWhen the bandits have stolen your jewelry and goneAnd your crippled young gypsy, hes grown tall and strongAnd your dead misconceptions have proven you wrongWell then, princess, where you plannin to turn to? When your magazine memory has spun you aroundAnd you realize your lovers were just painted clownsAnd outside your window you start hearing soundsWhere theyre building a cross for to burn youWhen all your bright scarlet turn slowly to blueWill you stop and decide that its over? When your teardrops go sour and no longer fallThe splash cross the virgin that lives down your hallAnd spends all her nights with an ear to your wallWell then, what will you have you can offer? When the firedancers finish and leave you aloneWith nothing but embers and sacks full of stoneThat hang round your neck, slicing through to the boneWill there still be place for your laughter? As your shattered illusions come a-tumblin homeAnd all of the butchers youve nourished have grownAnd they are suddenly able to leave you aloneAnd they run like slaves that are set freeWhen your questions are answered and your pleading is doneAnd your mind starts to screaming that you aint the oneThat once dwelled within you, will you turn, will you runThen princess, will you come home and get me?
