Romany Rye - Long Way Down lyrics

rate me

came down the hard way,

With eyes to curse the cruel days

Lips to laugh the whole night, through

I bought a ladder from a friend,

That said that I could fly

Since my thoughts have turned black as midnight

Cause it's a long way down, long way down

Long way down, from the bottom

From cheap ritz and burgundy,

The stale smell of mystery

I think no one here,

Is quite what they seem

The siren sings the sweet songs,

To Judas on the front lawn

While Dianna's in the bathroom,

Getting stoned

Cause it's a long way down, long way down

Long way down, from the bottom

The ghost of Ophellia,

Said "What you'd like I could steal for ya."

But what you need,

You don't cause to think

Now my voice, could never carry

The lips that gave it wings,

But my smile could tell a lie

With no words

Cause it's a long way down, long way down

Long way down, from the bottom

It's a long way down, long way down

Long way down, from the bottom
