Robert Earl Keen - Over the Waterfall lyrics

I slipped through your fingers into the clouds Ran down the concrete hallways Pushed through the crowds. I watched by the water Reached for the sun Why did I bother What's done is done And all that's left of me now Is waiting to drown Over the waterfall (falling down) Over the waterfall (falling down) Over the waterfall (falling down) I fall down Soldiers of fortune Stand by your door You can't remember What you hired them for You cleared your conscience And I left a stain The beauty of sadness is Feeling the pain And all that's left of me now Is waiting to drown Over the waterfall (falling down) Over the waterfall (falling down) Over the waterfall (falling down) And only the sad stone man can hear my cry And only the tall blue girl can see I lost my way I have no alibi So no one will know you knew me Randomly speaking Pieces of light The clowns from the circus Got drunk here last night They talked of reunion Then left on their own What they've never known Is what you've always known. And all that's left of me now Is waiting to drown Over the waterfall (falling down) Over the waterfall (falling down) Over the waterfall (falling down)
