(Jack White/Mark Spiro)
|
|
You always run to me
|
Whenever she leaves you
|
We trade philosophy
|
But nothing can free you
|
Too many poison arrows hit
|
The heart you've try to hide
|
Can't you say goodbye to this foolish lullaby?
|
|
Still you talk as if
|
She didn't hurt you
|
But I see what she did
|
And you see the virtue
|
You refuse to hear the words
|
That lie behind your eyes
|
Can't you say goodbye to this foolish lullaby?
|
|
If you are so sure that she's the one
|
Why are you lying here with me?
|
Did it ever cross your mind at all
|
Of how this feels to me?
|
I'll never know just what you see in her
|
I don't even want to try
|
I guess the both of us sing a foolish lullaby
|
|
So we'll wear the goodbye look
|
Collecting excuses
|
For all the time it took
|
To hide the abuses
|
The thorns around the roses left
|
Their mark below our eyes
|
Can't we say goodbye to this foolish lullaby?
|
|
If you are so sure that she's the one
|
Why are you lying here with me?
|
Did it ever cross your mind at all
|
Of how this feels to me?
|
I'll never know just what you see in her
|
I don't even want to try
|
I guess the both of us sing a foolish lullaby
|
