"Adeline" lyrics

Hayes & The Heathens Lyrics

"Adeline"

I dreamed that I might run off all your sorrows
And trade old yesterdays for new tomorrows
But you could never bring yourself to borrow
A friend for when your colors all turn grey

I found you holding court at Central Station
For the boys who prove their love through slow starvation
I just skipped that strange initiation
And hoped you would see me walk away

Adeline
What's the sense in runnin' from
All the things you've said and done in your lifetime
Adeline
So much you can't ever know
Turn around and let it go away, hey hey hey

The ships off of the beach are slowly sinking
While the sailors you once loved are busy drinking
But you won't show a sign of what you're thinking
Laughin' while your pour heart breaks in two

Adeline
What's the sense in runnin' from
All the pain and damage done in your lifetime
Adeline
Stayin' here won't make it right
Could you just give up the fight today? Hey hey hey

Adeline
There ain't no sense in runnin' from
All the pain and damage done in your lifetime
Adeline
All those years of holdin' on
Maybe there's another song to play, hey hey hey
