Martha`s Foolish Ginger — текст песни (Tori Amos)

If those harbour lights had just been a half a mile inland

who knows what I would have done

If those harbour lights had just been a half a mile inland

who knows what I would have done



Through the cliffs

out of the Bay I went

From the starboard side

I could black my visions and my passions-

They keep me awake



If those harbour lights had just been a half a mile inland

who knows what I would have done

If those harbour lights had just been a half a mile inland

who knows what I would have done



A familiar voice

Hi. Surprise.

I`ve been searching trying to find you

I couldn`t speak

my hands reached for Martha`s Foolish Ginger

We talked until the moon came up

About how life without love

isn`t worth very much

Then I played this song



If those harbour lights had just been a half a mile inland

who knows what I would have done

If those harbour lights had just been a half a mile inland

who knows what I would have done

what I would have done

what I would have done



Memories that we have yet you said

To make like our Burning Bed...

Love, don`t mistake that it wasn`t safe

on Martha`s Foolish Ginger.
