Labelled With Love (I'll Stay With My Dreams)
guitar chords lyrics
She opens the top of her new cocaine packet,
Shuffles about in her dim and dark hovel,
Like a frightened old witch with pure panic she shivers,
Sweats like a pig and the neighbours she sickens,
Her darkened room, it has long seen a visitor,
Her frightened scowl is a permanent fixture,
The postman delivers the final reminders,
She tries not to see them and thinks herself finer.
Sniffs not to think of I, me and myself,
Lines up the coke and goes off in a dream,
Home is a place, I don't know where that is,
So my dreams have been bottled and labelled with love.
During her youth a North Country cowboy,
So my dreams have been bottled and labelled with love.
During her youth a North Country cowboy,
Made all her night-life a time of excitement,
She moved to his manor and stayed near the cowboy,
She learned from a distance how romance won't fix her.
He became drinker and she became mother,
She knew that she couldn't live life with another,
She became a controller and moved to a city,
Scared of her feelings, she kept herself pretty.
Drinks not to think of I, me and myself,
Gets into fights and ends up in a cell,
Home is a love, I don't know what that means,
So the pain has been bottled, I'll stay with my dreams.
She made up her mind to become a pop singer,
She believed then that nobody would scold her,
She'd have all the power and then she'd be happy,
But with no self-esteem, she threw it away.
There came a time when nobody was listening,
It was so hard just to sit with her feelings,
In a dirty old room, in a sweat-covered bed,
She'd lay and she'd fret and sniff from the packet.
Sniffs to remember I, me and myself,
Chops up the coke and drops more beads of sweat,
Home is a place, I don't know where that is,
So the pain has been bottled, I'll stay with my dreams.
Sniffs to remember I, me and myself,
Chops up the coke and drops more beads of sweat,
Home is a place, I don't know where that is,
So the pain has been bottled, I'll stay with my dreams.
The pain has been bottled, I'll stay with my dreams.
