Roches - One Season lyrics

rate me

One season I was born<br />

Fell down like an acorn<br />

I am the only tree<br />

And everybody leaves<br />

<br />

I've got to get away from you<br />

<br />

Bud growing up at me<br />

Resentful face I see<br />

A harsh light seems to damn you<br />

Is it because I am you?<br />

<br />

I've got to get away from you<br />

I need to find a love that's true<br />

<br />

Loose leaf lay on the bed<br />

Hair falling around her head<br />

I watched her from the shore<br />

I can't do any more<br />

<br />

I've got to get away from you<br />

I'll come and visit you in the zoo<br />

<br />

We go on arguing<br />

No one can say a thing<br />

Set down your key and trumpet<br />

Go have a dream and hump it<br />

<br />

I've got to get away from you<br />

You don't know what you put me through<br />

<br />

Prized fighter with bruised pride<br />

A fuse blew when you tried<br />

To fix the worn out wire<br />

And set the house on fire<br />

<br />

I've got to get away from you <br />

If only for a day or two
