aoife o’donovan – thursday’s child lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i got nothing to hide
i’m as naked as the day i was born
in november and you know all what they say
thursday’s child has far to go, don’t i know

[verse 2]
i got far to go, should i leave you behind
and drive to alaska on sat+rday night
these four walls around me are keeping out the light

[verse 3]
no one’s riding shotgun, i’m driving alone
i can turn up the music and do whatever i want
when i get to the border, put a quarter a payphone

[chorus]
oh, my tyranny’s gonna crumble
and so, sit next to me and fumble with the b+ttons on my dress
what do you want to be?
i want to be a poet

[verse 4]
to get down on my knees and unplug your drain
i feel an ache in my bones every time that it rains
and when i look up at the sun and the sky i tell time
[verse 5]
if something is leaking, just give me a call
there’s a tear on your cheek, there’s a crack in the wall
i can soak up the water with the folds of my black shawl

[chorus]
oh, my tyranny’s gonna crumble
and so, sit next to me and fumble with the b+ttons on my dress
what do you want to do?
i want to watch you stumble

[verse 6]
stumble through this fertile land
in your pocket are both my hands
when you get to the other side, the northern lights and a blanket of white

[verse 7]
i wanted to be a singer, so i grew my hair long
i needed a guitar slinger to push me along
to fill out my verse and my chorus with a baritone

[verse 8]
i got nothing to hide, i’m laying it out there
take it or leave it, you can figure it out
“thursday’s child has far to go,” i’m gonna shout
[outro]
oh, my tyranny’s gonna crumble
and so, sit next to me and fumble with the b+ttons on my dress
b+ttons on my…
b+ttons on my dress
