Lyrics Leif Vollebekk – Ladyland
Text:
Heroes would’ve fought for you
And poets would’ve thought of you
Had you lived back when they did those sorts of things
And seeing as how I long for you
I thought maybe I’d write a song or two for you
If I could only say your name
But I know you said you couldn’t
But does that mean I shouldn’t tell you?
Ladyland on that afternoon before your pulitzer eyes
And those of a drunken lunatic
Or maybe he was just in love
Ladyland fell beneath our feet
Not long after a waltz we wreathed
As if it was a one-sided japanese love suicide
As if it was a one-sided japanese love suicide
As if it was a one-sided japanese…
If I could only say your name
But I know you said you couldn’t
But does that mean I shouldn’t tell you?
Ladyland on that afternoon before your pulitzer eyes
And those of a drunken lunatic
Or maybe he was just in love
Ladyland fell beneath our feet
Not long after a waltz we wreathed
As if it was a one-sided japanese love suicide
As if it was a one-sided japanese love suicide
As if it was a one-sided japanese…
