Blue Highway: Tears Fell on Missouri

aus dem Album: Marbletown

Songtext:
He called from Kansas City Klebefolien de
He said I’m on the Missouri side
She said you had me worried
I was expecting you tonight Homepagedesign Wuppertal
The silence that followed caused her heartbeat to race
so she got out a map, her hands trembling as she sat
for the next words he would say Osternester basteln

Chorus:
Then her tears fell on Missouri Kinderzimmer Jugendzimmer
Like rain a-pourin’ down
he just called and told her
about a new love he’d found Versorgungsausgleich
the children lay a-sleepin’
they don’t know their daddy’s gone
and her tears fell on Missouri Immobilien Düsseldorf-Golzheim
from their little Georgia home

She said what about our babies
Don’t you remember the day
the doctor gave ’em to you
and your tears of joy fell on their face
you should’ve thought of their feelings ’cause it’s not just you and me alone
and what am I gonna say to our angels when they wake
and ask why dad’s not coming home

Chorus
