John & Mary
What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Stars shining through buildings,
2
I never could see
3
When I saw you there talk to the world
4
I was thinking it was me.
5
A foggy grey runway, pushing into the crowd
6
Shutters bang in the night, in the wind
7
Swollen eyes in the dark open wide
8
Till they see flowers red
9
Hang with love from the railings,
10
Maybe fate all along.
11
Flowers grey
12
Pressed in glass painted cases
13
One step backward, I never felt so wrong.
14
Summer nights we would travel,
15
Neon cities aglow
16
When you'd tell me the music's too loud,
17
I would smile, 'Yes I know...'
18
Kids would show off their cities,
19
Be they ever so proud
20
Just as a precaution at night
21
Hold your housekeys like penknives
22
And see through the dark flowers red
23
Hang with love from the railings,
24
Maybe fate all along.
25
Flowers grey
26
Pressed in glass-painted cases
27
One step backward, I never felt so wrong.
28
Drawing faces of landscapes
29
Driving home from afar
30
After calendar pages turned over
31
To find out where you are.
32
There are times I still see you
33
Alone on the stairs
34
Had I known for the asking
35
When gods choose to punish
36
It's likely surprise how they answer our prayers
37
Hang with love from the railings,
38
Maybe fate all along.
39
Flowers grey
40
Pressed in glass-painted cases
41
One step backward, I never felt so wrong.
