"Country Queen" lyrics

"Country Queen"

Someday you'll know that
You just won't let in, you just won't let in
Light through your canyon eyes
Like old times, you'll forget
And it's just like you want me to

Ooh, come on lady, dance
For everyone you know
You just won't let them, you just won't let them
With those holes in your vest and those pearls on your chest
We always knew we'd catch the very end of our own death

So when you said that we'll be done
And you said that I'm the one
Who knows?

So sister where'd you think you'll run away?
So far to tell me about your one brittle dream?
So I wish I'd fallen by your wonder
Caught by your spell I've fallen under

So sister where'd you think you'll run away?
I'm falling faster than all our family
Now I'll follow you
Night moves, night moves us
As it moves us too

So sister' golden eye
Won't lie
Gone with the golden stare
So light

Well now
It's just a fever
Like a country queen
All the rhymes I've seen
She's seen my whole life
And ran with me
In and out of dreams
Oh I fell between
