Patty Griffin - Trapeze lyrics

rate me

Little pink dress, hanging by her knees

Just overhead on the old trapeze

In the old tent tonight, spotlight going round

One of these nights the old girl's going down

Hallelujah, the old girl's going down

She started with us on the back of a horse

Just seventeen and already divorced

She took to the air with the greatest of ease

Like she was born to be gliding on the old trapeze

Some people don't care if they live or they die

Some people want to know what it feels like to fly

Gather their courage and they give it a try

Some guy broke her heart and how her heart it did ache

So she went to the tent of the lady of the snakes

Who gave her a potion and she drank it in

After that her heart never ached again

After that her heart never ached again

Some poeple don't care if they live or they die

Some people want to know what it feels like to fly

Gather their courage and they give it a try

Fall under the wheels of a time goin' by

Little pink dress, hanging by her knees

Just overhead on the old trapeze

In the old tent tonight, spotlight going round

One of these nights the old girl's going down

One of these nights the old girl's going down

One of these nights the old girl's going down

One of these nights the old girl's going down

Halle- Halle- Halle-

Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah

Hallelujah
