Long Lonely Bayou Songtext
von Tab Benoit

She was mine and was fine back then
I tried to say how much I′ll love her 'till the end
And there were time I couldn′t say what I wanted to
And now she's gone and I'm a long lonely bayou

Now I′m fillin′ up from the rain
The still waters are killing my veins
My heart is driftin' like an old pirogue
There′s been a time with nowhere to go


I find it hard to snake my way through the trees
I can't even get a push from a breeze
I was a man who found a love so true
And now she′s gone and I'm a long lonely bayou

Now I′m fillin' up from the rain
The still waters are killing my veins
My heart lonely's driftin′ like an old pirogue
There′s been a time, I've got no place to go

I find it hard to snake my way through the trees
I can′t even find a push from a breeze
I was a man who found a love so true
And now she's gone and I′m a long lonely bayou
And now she's gone and I′m a long lonely bayou
