Done With Those Days Songtext
von DeVotchKa

Go easy there, cousin
There′s a storm a-comin'
Better quit your runnin′ and back down
And I ain't lyin' to you, mister
Certifiable twister
Heading straight for the center of this town

And oh yes, my brother
We are gonna lean on each other
If we′re gonna turn this situation ′round

Oh, it all rings true
The daylight shines right through
You thought you were done with those days
But they ain't done with you


Oh, we′ll get you down off of the ropes
We'll clean you up, we′ll give you hope
Check your bruised and battered egos at the door
All our schemes have been foiled
Give away that's left of the spoils
You can always leave ′em wantin' a little more

And the ones we put of all our trust
Lie in the field covered in rust
The topsoil has blown into our blood
And there's a divine purpose
Lying just below the surface
You′re the one that I′ve been dreaming of

Oh, it all rings true
The daylight shines right through
You thought you were done with those days
But they ain't done with you

Go easy there, cousin
There′s a storm comin'
Better board up all your windows and your doors
There′s a divine purpose
Lying just below the surface
You're the one that I was put here for
