Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
As I stood on her chest the American shouted He paid me in whiskey, they left in a car The temple was closing, the nightguard was whistling And mumbling songs in a foreigner's tongue I looked at her lips, they were red as the roses That bloom by the mouth of the wastewater pipe They paid me in whiskey and left without turning And I returned home to the dormitory I fear for my father, he will demand answers He will not believe that this bottle I found He'll make me confess then he'll probably expel me It's the middle of winter and snow's on the ground They left without turning, she never once smiled I tried not to notice, she carried his child Now I clean up the kitchen and I sweep off the stairs But no one is coming, there's no-body here When I dream of her face it is white as a daisy She looks up through my legs and does not make a sound She seems underwater, she's somebody's daughter She does not demand answers, she lays on the ground They will not forgive me, they must find out something They'll make me confess then they'll kick me around But when I dream of her face it is white as blank paper I stand on her chest, there is no-one around When I dream of her face it is white as a feather I stand on her chest there is snow on the ground
