Colin Vearncombe - Misbegotten Child lyrics

rate me

Ah wish me back where I am from

She was as pretty as a picture

And she laughed and held my hand and kicked my toe...

And she spoke about you

I would have been nowhere but where we were and it

Didn't seem to matter if she cared

So though my heart was flipping,

Going; do! do! do!

She spoke about you

Misbegotten child did you throw it all away, now you

Try to hide your tears in the pouring rain?

I want to hear those violins,

Feel those bumps and bells,

Know the devils groan in hell 'cause they can't have

You

Ah wish me back where I am from

And take your hands off of my collar!

What you're going through's not what you're supposed to

She spoke about YOU;

She threw her head back

And she sang out your name

And I wondered what to do

And if I wanted to

So though my heart was flipping over, going; do! do!

Do! do!

She spoke about you

Wish me back where I came from

She was as pretty as a picture

And she laughed and held my hand and kicked my toe...

And she still said "no"
