john wesley harding - the splendid life lyrics

[verse 1]
i recall the moment it was gone
i was in the back and you were driving
at first, i thought it vital that we won
then i was relieved to be surviving
i always knew that getting there was fun
i wish it wasn’t ruined by arriving

[chorus]
oh, the splendid life, yes it’s over
oh, life in clover, it’s all gone
oh, the splendid life, yes it’s over
what went wrong?
[verse 2]
your tracks they led me half way ’round the world
you left a trail of paperbacks behind you
you took some yarn, spun it through the maze
but only i was bothеred to come find you
no matter all thе bridges that you burned
you’ll always have me here to remind you

[chorus]
oh, the splendid life, yes it’s over
oh, life in clover, it’s all gone
oh, the splendid life, yes it’s over
what went wrong?

[bridge]
sometimes you’ll kid yourself
into believing that it didn’t exist
but it did
yes it did

[verse 3]
the verdict’s in, there’ll be no appeal
oh, check the papers, it’s not april fool’s day
i heard the crash before i heard the squeal
everywhere is turning into safeway
and if you don’t believe that this is real
just read the memo waiting in your in+tray
[chorus]
oh, the splendid life, yes it’s over
oh, life in clover, that’s all gone
oh, the splendid life, yes it’s over
what went wrong?
