paroles de chanson Leaving New River Blues - Mark Lanegan

I had to leave New River
After being married there
Couldn't get back home again
So long that I ceased to care

I start to fiend and shake
'Til heaven was dry

Went on to old Charleston
Found more trouble there
Couldn't give up on this gambling
And I lost far more than my fair share

Oh-oh, and heaven was dry
Oh-oh

The first thing that you learn now, love
As you ride a broken pony
Learn to love the dirt now, love
You love what can't be loved enough

If you fiend like some do
Then heaven is dry
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh

When heaven is dry, baby
You exist for what you need
When the hurting starts for real now, baby
You'd crawl from Dallas to New Orleans

If you need like some do
Then heaven is dry
Oh-oh, heaven is dry
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
