Election Night — текст песни (John Wesley Harding)

I met you on election night

As we cried over our beers

Nothing you could do would cheer me up

We broke up later that year

How come you and I arent winners?

Why werent we born the other side?

And its raining

Its raining

On election night



You fight, you fight and nothing changes

And when it does the paybacks worse

We arrived here in limo

We drove home in a hearse

And we are none the wiser

I guess that were just not so bright

So Ill see you

Yes Ill see you

Next election night



The balloons look so deflated

As they burst and float on down

Its been 4 years that weve waited

For those balloons to hit the ground

Looks like you backed a real loser

Who thinks that life is black and white

But hell be back again

Well be back again

Next election night
