The Lone Bellow - Two Sides of Lonely lyrics

rate me

I had one chance to tell you I was worthly

As we stood between the graves in our town

And the dead folks sang their forgotten songs

As I watched your eyes stare at the ground

On the one hand you're hoping I'm lying

On the other you hope I'm a fool

all the wind it blew, all the leaves around you

As you watched all our dreamin' come true

Two sides of lonely

One is heart, one is duty

Two sides of lonely

One's in the grave, and the other should be

We were alone together in Brooklyn

And the midnight snow fell in the park

And the cold wind crashed through the trees above us

As we watched the frost freeze our dead hearts

Two sides of lonely

One is heart, one is duty

Two sides of lonely

One's in the grave, and the other should be

And the dead folks they own all the songs that you sung

In the grave you dug yourself when we were young

And the dead folks they sway back and forth to the drum

And the two sides of lonely

Laid rest in their arms

You rock back and forth as the seasons

Changed just like your mind in the dark

And the nights you sleep you dream of me

And the love you let die...
