Least I Have You Songtext
von CocoRosie

Mama had to be man of the house
Papa played mom like cat plays mouse
She had to do what she had to do
She threw him out like an old left shoe

Refused to go, we were too small to know
We′d end up in another state, jail mates
Me and my sister, fate unknown
Tried to call her on the telephone

But we couldn't reach the dial tone
At night, we were scared, and we cried
She told me lullabies to dry my eyes
And chase away the blue
That′s what big sisters do
And they chase away the nightmares too


If no one, if no one in the world understands
At least I have you, at least I have you
If no one, if no one in the world understands
At least I have you, at least I have you

Too many moths spoil the broth
Not enough candles, light is lost
Flew off the handle, just an ordinary scandal
My light is lost without you

Had to throw him out too like an old stinky shoe
You taught me how to go for bluebirds
Sing songs without words
It'd be easier to tell you
Just how much I love and miss you

If no one in the world
If no one, if no one in the world understands
At least I have you, at least I have you
If no one, if no one in the world understands
At least I have you (at least I have you), at least I have you (at least I have you)

If no one, if no one in the world understands
At least I have you (at least I have you), at least I have you (at least I have you)
