Long Time Rogue Songtext
von The Brad Pitt Light Orchestra

I′ve said it before, I'll not say it again
There′s more to a man than his debts to his friends
But when love comes to call and he drinks up his fill
Well, he'd fake his own death to avoid paying the bill

Oh, and nothing to fear, just the taste of her tears
It's the breaking of hearts you once thought were dear to you
Nothing to take from this heartless escape
You′re a long time rogue

Well, I′ve heard them before, those confessions of fools
All gagged with regret at the death of their youth
But from bleeding it dry without tending the wound
Now the chamber, it's empty, and the trigger′s no good


Oh, and nothing to fear, just the taste of her tears
It's the breaking of hearts you once thought were dear to you
Nothing to take from this heartless escape
You′re a long time rogue

Oh, and time, they're calling time
We′ll drink to one last roll in the barrel
Oh, time, they're calling time
We'll dream of one last chance

Oh, I was chastened before, then I started to pray
"Lord, heal me tomorrow, don′t heal me today"
But salvation′s postponed and the night's closing in
On a long time rogue

Oh, la-da-da-da, la-da-da, la-da-da-da, la-da-da
La-da-da-da, la-da-da, la-da-da-da, la-da-da
La-da-da-da, la-da-da, la-da-da-da, la-da-da
You′re a long time rogue
