English Tongue
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You can't judge life if you don't understand
The way that we work we're a close knit plan
And everybody knows just who I am
My name's Hugh Diver I'm the starlit strand
There must be someone with an English tongue
Marking your words for the miles you lost
It's gonna be a cruel cruel winter
The go zone girls in the club don't agree
They called me in but there was nothing to see
All the folk poke their eyes at me
Is it just my fame or infamy?
Up jumped the devil and the cavalry
Everyone's excited they're watching me
And everybody knows just who I am
My name's Hugh Diver I'm the starlit strand
There must be someone with an English tongue
Marking your words for the miles you lost
It's gonna be a cruel cruel winter
Let him go
Let him go
And everybody knows just who I am
And everybody knows just who I am
And everybody knows just who I am
My name's Hugh Diver I'm the starlit strand
