WILD STRAWBERRIES - AT THE UNICORN lyrics

rate me

You and me and Billy Turpine playing by the fire escape

You can be the mountains, I will be the wind

She will be sin

It seems like a long time, swinging on the broken gate

Stealing from the clothesline, call call Billy

She'll take the blame

Mama used to say

She'd live and die this way

While the band played at the Unicorn

By the Somerset Stage

You know I've seen a lot of things, I've done a lot in my time

Nobody ever told me life would be a friend of mine

Like a child with a crooked mind trying to sleep

I don't know which way the wind blows

I don't know what the second hand holds

Billy oh cold cold Billy...

Mama used to say

She'd live and die this way

While the band that played at the Unicorn

Sang her sorrows away

You can't always get what you want to

You can't even get what you need

Sometimes life is a bit of an angry child

With blood on its knees

You and me and Billy Turpine

Playing by the fire escape

You can be the mountains

I will be the wind

Who will be sin?
