 State Of The Heart » Lyrics [+ Shtoj +] |
1. _ Slow Country Dance
(mary chapin carpenter)
Out on the floor the couples are swing
To one |
2. _ Never Had It So Good
(mary chapin carpenter/john jennings)
No one's got to tell me it's over
I could see it from miles away
No one's got to tell me
What i don't already know today
No one's got to tell me they've seen you
On the town with an old girlfriend
No one's got to tell me
You look like you've fallen in love again
'cause you're out of my life now
With a wave of her hand
You never had it so good babe
I never had it so bad
Now you can do what you want to
And never feel sad
You never had it so good babe
I never had it so bad
No one's got to tell me the difference
Between me and the one who's returned
No one's got to tell me
You never really got over her
No one's got to tell me they've seen you
Looking like a brand new man
No one's got to tell me
You look like you've fallen in love again
'cause you're out of my life now
With a wave of her hand
You never had it so good babe
I never had it so bad
Now you can do what you want to
And never feel sad
You never had it so good babe
I never had it so bad
So you just go where you go
And do what you do
And be who you want to be
But when she burns you again
And your phone doesn't ring
Baby it's me
'cause you're out of my life now
With a wave of her hand
You never had it so good babe
I never had it so bad
Now you can do what you want to
And never feel sad
You never had it so good babe
I never had it so bad

3. _ Quittin' Time
(robb royer/roger linn)
Hey baby tell me what we're gonna do
It's getting crazy and i need some help from you
We were so connected that you were a part of me
Now i feel an emptiness right to the heart of me
But you pretend and i pretend
That everything is fine
And though we should be at an end
It's so hard admittin'
When it's quittin' time
Hey baby i'm running out of things to say
Please don't hate me this feeling just won't go away
Now we're spending all our time caught in a fantasy
Just trying to keep in mind the way it used to be
But you pretend and i pretend
That everything is fine
And though we should be at an end
It's so hard admittin'
When it's quittin' time
But you pretend and i pretend
That everything is fine
And though we should be at an end
It's so hard admittin'
When it's quittin' time

4. _ Goodbye Again
(mary chapin carpenter)
Every night she sleeps alone
And by her bed she puts the phone
And every morning after that
She takes the phone and puts it back
Now he's got a wife back home
And three kids up and grown
But these are things that go unsaid
He might call her from the road
Just in time to say hello and
Goodbye again
She keeps his picture tucked away
She think she might have it framed someday
And maybe he'll come see it there
Hanging by her rocking chair
In a corner of her room
On a sunday afternoon
When all the world is dull and grey
She might close her eyes and sit
Rocking gently for a bit
Till all the bad thoughts go away
Back when children played their games
London bridge and jesse james
She captured flags she bounced the ball
And every time she beat them all
Now she comes home to her cat
In a three room walk up flat
And plays a game of solitaire
Well she made a fist last night
And she broke the hallway light
And the pieces scattered everywhere
You see he's got a wife back home
And three kids up and grown
But these are things that go unsaid
He might call her from the road
Just in time to say hello
And goodbye again

5. _ Read My Lips
(mary chapin carpenter)
A few more cigarettes now honey
One more jolt of joe
A couple hours past new york city
A few more turnpike tolls
One more minute away from you
Is a minute that lasts too long
When i get back we're gonna lock the door baby
And disconnect the phone
We could use a week to get reacquainted
Some time to feel it out
But leave your small talk back at home baby
This ain't what that's about
Just read my lips
Yes i think you can
Just read my lips
And you'll understand
Well i can see it in your eyes now honey
'cause i've seen it in myself
You've got a few old scars that's ancient history baby
That was someone else
Well i could tell you that you're only human
That you're right to be afraid
But how can you pull back on me now
Don't you make that big mistake
Well you could give it up
Or you could just give in
Now it's a choice between the two
But i weren't born no yesterday baby
I wasn't born a fool
Just read my lips
Yes i think you can
Just read my lips
And you'll understand
Just read my lips
And you can read my mind
Just read my lips
Just one more time
This ain't no game of cat and mouse
It ain't no truth or dare
I ain't got 20 questions for you
Just one thing to declare
Just read my lips
Yes i think you can
Just read my lips
And you'll understand
Just read my lips
And you can read my mind
Just read my lips
Just one more time

6. _ How Do
(mary chapin carpenter)
Well that's a real nice jacket son
It looks like it cost you too
And that car you're driving
Hey does that belong to you
Well you don't look familiar
Are you new in town
Here's a local girl
Who wants to show you around
How do
Where'd you get that accent son
It matches your cowboy boots
Tonight those lone star ladies
Must be lonesome and oh so blue
'cause we're a thousand miles
From the texas line
And if you've no objection son
Tonight you're mine
How do
Well i've been to paris baby
I've been to dallas too
But i didn't see no one there
Who looked half as good as you
So if you ain't in a hurry baby
Just sit tight
I'm sort of in the mood
To speak some french tonight
Et vous?
How do

7. _ Too Tired
(mary chapin carpenter)
Too tired to fight so i just gave in
Last night i slept in your arms again
And i felt my heart next to your skin
Beating like crazy
Been running from something i can't explain
It ain't just anger it ain't just pain
But it goes away when you call my name
Calling me baby
But you ain't no good for a girl like me
Well i was doing fine when i first met you
Swept me off my feet next thing i knew
I was wondering where you'd gone off to
Leaving me lonely
This town's too small for your kind of games
Pointing fingers and naming names
But i'm so gar gone i'll take anything
That you can give me
But you ain't no good for a girl like me
Last night i felt
That i couldn't stand no more
But i found myself
Standing right here by your door
Too tired to care that you're bad for me
My heart says stay but my head says leave
And i can't get far when i'm on my knees
Begging you baby
But you ain't no good for a girl like me

8. _ Down In Mary's Land
(mary chapin carpenter)
Fields of green by the side of the road
Going down in mary's land
Roll down the window feel the cool of a grove
Hit the palm of your outstretched hand
Radio's playing a tune from the country
Fiddle and an old time band
Race with the moon to the edge of the water
Down in mary's land
Down in mary's land
East of virginia where the bay meets a river
Down in mary's land
The wind pulls your sleeve like a long lost lover
Whose heart can't understand
How you ever could leave
The view you behold
Ain't it fine and ain't life grand
When you don't need nothing
But some beer and a bushel
Down in mary's land
Gonna sleep with the stars
And a slice of the moon
Hanging right above my bed
Gonna dream not of things
That i've left behind
But those i've found instead
Down in mary's land
Radio's playing a tune from the country
Fiddle and an old time band
Race with the moon to the edge of the water
Down in mary's land
Gonna sleep with the stars
And a slice of the moon
Hanging right above my bed
Gonna dream not of things
That i've left behind
But those i've found instead
Down in mary's land

9. _ This Shirt
(mary chapin carpenter)
This shirt is old and faded
All the color's washed away
I've had it now for more damn years
Than i can count anyway
I wear it beneath my jacket
With the collar turned up high
So old i should replace it
But i'm not about to try
This shirt's got silver buttons
And a place upon the sleeve
Where i used to set my heart up
Right there anyone could see
This shirt is the one i wore to every boring high school dance
Where the boys ignored the girls
And we all pretended to like the band
This shirt was a pillow for my head
On a train through italy
This shirt was a blanket beneath the love
We made in argeles
This shirt was lost for three whole days
In a town near buffalo
'till i found the locker key
In a downtown trailways bus depot
This shirt was the one i lent you
And when you gave it back
There was a rip inside the sleeve
Where you rolled your cigarettes
It was the place i put my heart
Now look at where you put a tear
I forgave your thoughtlessness
But not the boy who put it there
This shirt was the place your cat
Decided to give birth to five
And we stayed up all night watching
And we wept when the last one died
This shirt is just an old faded piece of cotton
Shining like the memories
Inside those silver buttons
This shirt is a grand old relic
With a grand old history
I wear it now for sunday chores
Cleaning house and raking leaves
I wear it beneath my jacket
With the collar turned up high
So old i should replace it
But i'm not about to try

10. _ Something Of A Dreamer
(mary chapin carpenter)
She used to watch him from afar
She used to dream about him
And she'd wish upon a star
That one day he'd want her for his own
Throw caution to the wind
And with a grin
He'd take her home
She's something of a dreamer
Something of a fool
Something of a heartbreak
When she gives her heart to you
And she used to hear his voice at night
A sweet whisper from the shadows
Dancing with the backporch light
And she used to feel him in the wind
His warm breath upon her neck
And goosebumps up and down her skin
She's something of a dreamer
Something of a fool
Something of a heartbreak
When she gives her heart to you
Well she should have known by now
But that's the foolish part of her
She should have seen somehow
But a dreamer's never cured
When heartbreak fast approaches
When a love ain't truly love
He promised wine and roses
And she thought that was enough
She's something of a dreamer
Something of a fool
Something of a heartbreak
When she gives her heart to you

11. _ It Don't Bring You
(mary chapin carpenter)
Well i know it ain't been roses lately
Baby it's just been thorns
And no matter what we do
Nothing seems to change
Love has always been my shelter
For you it's been a storm
But for a while i thought
We'd almost beat the rain
Now there's a hole here in my pocket
Where all my dreams have gone
Falling out like so many nickels and dimes
And last of all you
You'd always been my good luck charm
I should've known that luck
It was a waste of time
Cause it don't bring you love if you don't love
And it don't bring you time if you ain't got time
And it don't bring you strength baby if you ain't strong
And it don't bring you kindness if you ain't kind
Now there's a whole lot in life to be unsure of
But there's one thing i can safely say i know
That of all the things that finally desert us
Pride is always the last thing to go
But it don't bring you love if you don't love
And it don't bring you time if you ain't got time
And it don't bring you strength baby if you ain't strong
And it don't bring you kindness if you ain't kind
And now i wish you only roses without the thorns
And i hope your dreams are always within reach
And i wish you shelter baby from all your storms
They scared you but they never seemed to teach
That i can't bring you love if you don't love
And i can't bring you time if you ain't got time
And i can't bring you strength baby if you ain't strong
And i can't bring you kindness if you ain't kind
And i can't bring you kindness if you ain't kind
