"When Fortune Comes" lyrics
"When Fortune Comes"
I don't want to know about the weight on your back
Every stone you gather and stack-from now on
Don't look at me for an ounce of pity
I don't want to know when fortune comes
Cheated, borrowed, stolen, or won-same thing
The rocks all show when the river runs low
Acting like everything's free
I don't want to know how you bide your time
Consider me deaf, consider me dumb and blind
Consider me true to the man I knew
I don't want to know how you make your way
Dropping stones to get back someday-well, go on
Every stride is another left behind
You're acting like everything's free
There's always a cost underneath
Where're you gonna go when the road runs out?
Fallen down, half-dead, waking in a flowerbed
Where're you gonna turn when your bridges all burn?
Acting like everything's free
There's always a cost underneath
I don't want to know where you lost the track
Going, gone, and never came back-it's the same thing
What'd you do with the person I knew?
What'd you do with the person I knew?

The Ballroom Thieves - "Sea Legs" A dark night at sea
And no one but me
To hold on to these old sails
Who's steering this ship
Oh, and where is the rest of it
Still homesick for a foreign harbor
A home on the range
And a big fire to...
Bear's Den - "When You Break" 1
Spoiled, selfish little child
Went out to play out in the wild
I found you shaking like a leaf
Underneath your family tree
You could never live out in the open
Regretting every word you've spoken...
Penny & Sparrow - "Serial Doubter" Why'd you up and run away?
Why'd you up and run away from me, darling?
'Cause you don't have to, my serial doubter
'Cause you don't have to, my love
Why'd you up and run away?
Why'd you up and run...
Birdtalker - "Blue Healer" Enter sadness, with your rain boots in blue
Since I can remember I've been runnin' from you
But this time you sat your ass down with no intent to move
You ain't no Blue Healer
Well the longer that...
The Oh Hellos - "Cold Is The Night" Cold is the night without you here
Just your absence ringing in my ears
Hard is the heart that feels no fear
Without the bad, the good disappears
Long is the road that leads me home
And longer still...
