Текст песни The Country - Van William

I watched my love unwind
How we talked all night of the things we'd find in the country
Smoke waiting on the pier
Where I saw the birds fly every year
They were angling
For the country

Light of day is saw it falling
Called me up to say that I was only a...

I was only seventeen
I could fold my flag and forget the dream of the country
Slow down my father said
Oh the flashing lights rained in my head
I was angry
For the country

Light of day I saw it falling
You called me up to say that I was only a

Boy I always pay for what I get
Oh you always pay for what you get
Oh they never paid for one thing

I saw the flame burn out
You said nothing ever turns around in the country
Can't take another year
I can hope, but I can't shake this fear
So forget me
For the country

Dead of night I saw you falling
I tried to make it right but I was only a

Boy, I always pay for what I get
Oh you always pay for what you get
Oh they never paid for one thing

I saw the flame burn out
You said nothing ever turns around in the country
Can't take another year
I can hope, but I can't shake this fear
So forget me
For the country

Dead of night I saw you falling
I tried to make it right but I was only a

Boy, I always pay for what I get
Oh you always pay for what you get
Oh they never paid for one thing

They can't take the rhythm from heart
They can't take the rhythm from heart
They can't take the rhythm from heart

Boy, I always pay for what I get
Oh you always pay for what you get
Oh they never paid for one thing

I watched my love unwind
How we talked all night of the things we'd find in the country
