milow - the orange grove lyrics

Loading...

[intro]
oh, oh

[verse 1]
a pretty steel and coal town
in a quiet street
an ordinary brick home
with a number 33

growing up in these suburbs
myriam took a vow
that she and her brother
should try to change the here and now

[chorus]
for the promised land is why they drove
oh, to the orange grove
oh, to the orange grove
oh, to the orange grove

[verse 2]
falling into the wrong crowd
before the great divide
riding his motorcycle one night
is how her brother died

much later, fights with her parents
they told she had changed
also that a marriage
to h-ssan had been arranged

[chorus]
for the promised land is why they drove
oh, to the orange grove
oh, to the orange grove
oh, to the orange grove

[bridge]
she became a much older man’s wife
down the diyala river they would ride

oh, oh

[verse 3]
and from their tiny apartment
down in saint-gilles
in their white mercedes
just like bonnie and clyde

it’s how the story ended
in a smoking whirl
the headlines showed a picture
of a smiling western girl

[chorus]
for the promised land is why they drove
oh, to the orange grove
oh, to the orange grove
oh, to the orange grove

for the promised land is why they drove
oh, to the orange grove
oh, to the orange grove
oh, to the orange grove
