paroles de chanson Cleopatra [Acoustic Demo] (Bonus Track) - The Lumineers

(Spoken:"Kinda like, picture a guy like in a middle (lark?) bar, just like drunk and he plays a hundred percent vocally but the guitar work is not really impressive?"
"K- here you go, (heat?)")

I was Cle-o-patra, I was young and an actress
And you knelt by my matress
And asked for my hand
And I was sad that you asked it, as I laid in a black dress, with my father in a cascette, I had no plans, (yeah)
And I left the foot prints, the mud stained on the carpet, and it hardened like my heart did when you left town
But I must admit it, that I would marry you in an instant, damn your wife I'd be your mistress just to have you around
But I was late for this, late for that, late for the love of my life
But when I die alone, when I die alone when I die I'll be on time (I-)
And the church discouraged any lust that burned in me yes my flesh, it was my courtsey but I held out
When a man's rejected he can fight for your affections but he can act like he's never met you and leave you low to the ground
But I was late for this, late for that, late for the love of my life
And when I die alone, when I die alone, when I die I'll be on time (yeah)
So I drive the taxies and the traffic distracts me
From the strangers in my back seat that remind me of you
And it's all a day dream that its you who's behind me, but you never recognize me, oh it breaks me (and it breaks me)
The only gifts from my Lord were birth and a dicorce
But I've read this script and the costume fits, so I play my part
And there are nights I wake up to the sound of the door shut and I search all the floors but I find no tracks
And the nurse in white shoes leads me back to my guest room, it's a bed and a bathroom and a place to relax
But I was late for this, late for that, late for the love of my life
And when I die alone, when I die alone when I die I'll be on time (I-I)
