Connor Christian - Sheets Down lyrics
rate mefeat. Southern Gothic
Well it was barely past eleven when my pills kicked in
That cabarnet didn’t heard my calls as I stumbled down the roof
Not even half as drunk as these strangers I pass
Stumbling in and out of bars as they smoke cigars and laugh
But I don’t even think everyone’s from here anymore
When it’s puring and sheets down on the bayou
And we’re dancing out in the quarter under the lamps
Red wine and codeine are coursing through our veins
And we never wanna go back home again
They say, start out a war if it’s written about
Tell me what else could ever really last
Trepidation and devastation are all that remain
Of thos things we thought we’d learn from years that passed
Everything else just fades so fast
When it’s pouring and sheets down on the bayou
And we’re dancing out in the quater under the lamps
Red wine and codeine are coursing through our veins
And we never wanna go back home again
I said don’t it make you feel so helpless
Sometimes it makes you feel so lost
Your love’s all I got baby
The things I thought I’ll never say
Are pouring from my heart like la la la la la la
The things I forgot in roll but a few
Are just a stain in the back of my mind
See I remember there’s something girl
But I never should just walk
So I just sit here looking for a sign
One that I may never find
When it’s puring and sheets down on the bayou
And we’re dancing out in the quarter under the lamps
Red wine and codeine are coursing through our veins
And we never wanna go back home again
I said don’t it make you feel so helpless
Sometimes it makes you feel so lost
Your love’s all I got baby
The things I thought I’ll never say
Are pouring from my heart like la la la la la la .
