Mansfield Songtext
von Beaven Waller

I come from a place
Where living is a lesson
Losing is a blessing
Loving is a question
Ask again

I come from a place
Where no-one is a dancer
Leaving is a cancer
Death is, then, the answer
We all want to get away

Mansfield
Though I′m born to forget you
My heart will keep you locked away
Locked away

I come from a place
Where sunsets are an ending
Letterman's are pending
We′re all through pretending
It's ever gonna change


I come from a place
Where moonlight's somewhat brighter
Let′s all start a fire
We′ll build it from desires
Lost to luxury

Mansfield
Though I've sworn to forgive you
My love still sees you take away
And take away

Little lives thrown to waste
Taken by the lust for value
Build it all just the same
Like little weeds that crop up in the pasture
Ah, you′ll never tame
Naw, you'll never tame

Mansfield
Though I′m bound to protect you
My life will see you swept away
And swept away

Mansfield
Though I've grown to resent you
My faith will let you walk away
Walk away


Mansfield
Though I′m born to forget you
My heart will keep you
Keep you locked away
All locked away
Locked away

I come from a place
