Colorfinger - Eleanor Young lyrics

Eleanor Young<br />

Eleanor young<br />

Eleanor child<br />

Standing on a lonely hilltop<br />

In the Appalachian Wild<br />

Eleanor sing<br />

Eleanor scream<br />

Shout loud to your own green world<br />

Doors don't open for the country girl<br />

Oh they lied to you<br />

They sung to you songs you werent meant to hear<br />

They showed you a life your eyes were never meant to see<br />

You should have seen right through it<br />

But you believed<br />

Eleanor grow<br />

Eleanor cold<br />

Midnight in a dim lit diner<br />

In the driving Detroit snow<br />

Eleanor yearn<br />

Oh Eleanor learn<br />

One child with no last name<br />

Your boys on the run<br />

Who do you blame<br />

Oh they lied to you<br />

He did to you things that you were taught were sin<br />

He took from you the best that was within you<br />

He showed you things your eyes were never meant to see<br />

But the saddest thing of all<br />

Is baby you believed<br />

Yeah yeah<br />

The saddest thing of all you believed<br />

Yeah mama you believed<br />

Eleanor age<br />

Eleanor cage<br />

See California on New Years Day<br />

Sun shines warm on the rose parade<br />

Eleanor ache<br />

Eleanor break<br />

Come out west<br />

With your last born child<br />

Grew up scared and weird and wild<br />

Oh you lied to me<br />

You hid from me knowledge I should have known<br />

You kept from me the life that was my own<br />

You shielded me from pains I should have seen<br />

For a very short while<br />

Mama I believed<br />

Yeah mama I believed
