One Old Woman

Sin in elizabeth rochelle

Let my dog go down deep in that old wishing well

And i know that they'll find it

She'll make a big scene hoping no one will notice

And i feel that when night falls i need it

And here i waste and i hustle myself

Why a little crime can make for a life this bad

It escapes me

But i know i'm not aloud to hold on too tightly to what has gone

And down at my new home

All of my family smiles in my face

But i've lost all the seconds that lead up to this

And i know that something will happen

If i don't take charge it might all disappear

And i fell that when night falls i need it

And here i wake and i trouble myself

Buy a little time from memories left alive

If they'll let me

But i know i'm not allowed to hold on too tightly to what has gone

Oh, to what has gone

And i stand down in a brick hole

Thinking and thinking and thinking and thinking at them

The scariest man calls down from the opening

And tells me that i won't be thinking again

And i feel that when night falls i breathe it in

Here i wait and i ready myself

Why a little time can erase a life's worth that just escapes me

And i know i'm not allowed to hold on too tightly to what has gone

Oh, to what has gone...
