Duxton Blues Songtext
von 7 Worlds Collide

It isn′t funny how often we've missed the boat
Did we love the shoreline so much?
Purchased tickets, packed our bags
Let the years be
We should have told them we were from somewhere else
With nobody knowing
Then we′d already be over here, over there
And everywhere we were going


If you're a native son or daughter
You could wonder where the old country gone
Feel your reflection disappearing
And hear the unsung song
Tell it to the birds you were from somewhere else
With nobody knowing
Then you'd already be in the time and the place
And everywhere you were going

We came to the party, showed up on time
To the then side stay strangely kind
Two by two they′re led by their arks
To escape our heavy rhyme

I should have told you about my specialty
Couldn′t blame you for not knowing
Oh, I should have told you about my tendency
Couldn't blame you for not knowing
That I′m always gonna be in the wrong when they're right
Coming while they′re going
Yes, I'm always gonna be in the wrong when they′re right
Coming while they're going
