Lovers Lane Songtext
von Magdaleine de Lioncourt

You take a deep breath and wipe away the blood stains on your army clothes
And nothing feels the same anymore once you start sleeping with the ghosts
I close my eyes and count to ten, i bite my tongue, i don′t give in
But they just bring me down like i'm a fragile Anne Boleyn

Like a Dollanganger child, you felt trapped all of your life
Never saw the blinding light of God with your own two eyes
Caught up in the limelight of a feeling you never knew
If there′s a heaven above, I hope i'll be there with you

I let you chase me after dark, where the street lights hit the sidewalk
And you lead me down the road to Lovers Lane
Throwing rocks outside your window, hoping you'll open up the curtains
Do you remember when you kissed my lips in the rain?


Cause its just not the same
Your mother misses you and I can′t remember your face
Married to Uncle Sam, I wish I′d known to run away with you
Scared shitless in the army and you haven't got a clue

I try to live in peace like those hippies on the streets
But the sweetness in my life has been missing
Cause you′re just too beautiful to be true
I was a stray dog until i found you

I let you chase me after dark, where the street lights hit the sidewalk
And you lead me down the road to Lovers Lane
I write you letters everyday, trusting in Christ though I've never prayed
Do you remember when you kissed my lips in the rain?

You′re never coming home
How must I do this on my own?
