the northern folk - cynics lyrics
[verse 1]
well i hung my sheets and stomped the streets
in a richmond summer rain
and i saw this girl who smiled just like you
well i burned with regret, like my first cigarette
as you crossed my mind again
and i watched her pass in the polish on my shoe
see, there was a time when you were mine
and the world was mine as well
but i’ve a mind as stubborn as a mule
and love, it waits at no man’s gate
it rings at no man’s bell
and i boarded all my doors up like a fool
[chorus]
well i guess this city turned us both to cynics
i guess it got the best of us somehow
if i could turn this wishing into whiskey
well darling, i’d be drunk by now
[verse 2]
there’s someone new, he’s not like you
he keeps it all inside
i’d sooner summon blood out of a stone
ain’t it strange how some things change
but others don’t subside
i’m just terrified we’ll both end up alone
[chorus]
well i guess this city turned us both to cynics
i guess it got the best of us somehow
if i could turn this wishing into whiskey
well darling, i’d be drunk by now
oh darling, i’d be drunk by now
[chorus]
well i guess this city turned us both to cynics
i guess it got the best of us somehow
if i could turn this wishing into whiskey
well darling, i’d be drunk by now
oh darling, i’d be drunk by now
oh darling, i’d be drunk by now
