Cat Power - Willie lyrics

rate me

willie deadwilder and rebecca

they knew that they loved one another

gonna have a real good time

no more sad sad bad times

it's all they've been waiting for

someon to knock at the door

willie was shot once in his mind

and his cry out saved his own life

the second time was through the heart

the doctors pulled the bullet from inside

he had a job to do he said

that's his way of life

please don't bring him down

please don't let him go

he's on the same side as you

he's just a little behind

i tell ya there are some people living alone

i tell ya there are some people with nowhere to go

there are some people who don't believe in love

but willie and rebecca prove 'em all wrong

a man named john wrote a song for me to sing

and the most beautiful flowers i have ever seen

he is a very good man

and he has been an even very good man to me

i hope one day his song i will sing

another love i still love

familiar face to me

a standing arch above my heart

i've never been to reach

he's laid my head on the bed

and told me sweety i am not

crazy like all the others said

no he's not crazy like me

please don't bring me down

please don't let me go

my heart is a worried thing

memories have planted seeds of a field i now

want to reap and sow

i'm on the same side as you

i'm just a little bit behind

(have you seen him)
