Текст (слова) песни: Townes Van Zandt - Why she`s acting this way
by Townes Van Zandt
Like silent she stands like laughter she falls from a castle of sand like a memory she crawls and the mockingbirds grieve `cause they can`t make her cry they`ll soon start to believe that the lady has died what it all goes to show it ain`t my job to say for who am I to know why she`s actin` this way Once again turn away if you`re sure that it`s done tell your prophets to pray tell your bandits to run take your eyelids of stone they won`t do you no harm take your cross made of bones take your your fly-paper arms and when everything`s placed in your coffin and go through a scarf `round your face `cause the subway gets cold pack up your sunflower smile and your bandana blues take your worthless denials they`re all you`ve got left to lose take your Tinkerbell lies and your weary desires take the tears in your eyes take your cup full of fire give your lover a call if your legs start to fail and he`ll come break your fall with a bed full of nails No need to glance back again there ain`t nothin` to see just this drunken old man and this woman and me and you`ve made it quite plain that we`re just wastin` time and you say that it seems strange that I`m staying behind but you don`t worry `bout me I can make it alone `cause I got no place to be and I ain`t far from home
