Take Your Place Songtext
von Alejandro Escovedo

Here she comes
All she sees she keeps
No one gonna take it away
Her eyes are young and old
The kind the ancients sold
To celebrate a victory
The trail she leaves is dark
Damp and dread
And all the mouths she′s ever fed

Round round round like the world she turned
It's a playback stuck inside your head

I see you for the first time
And baby I just wanna leave
Yeah I know you, it′s the last time
I'm all messed up
I got nothing to take your place


There's a past she keeps
In a depression jar
She opens like a secret cave
Who she was before
And what her life′s become
Is built upon the love she craves

I′m going down down down
There's nothing here
And baby you can′t hold me up
I'm going down down down
Even deeper still
Cause this world has gotten so fucked up

Yeah I see you for the first time
And baby I just wanna leave
Yeah I know you, it′s the last time
I'm all messed up
I got nothing to take your place
Yeah I see you for the first time
And baby I just wanna leave
Yeah I know you, it′s the last time
I'm all messed up
I got nothing to take your place
