Spanish Carpet Fair by The Great Salvation Lyrics
When you wake up, I hope you know that you are slowly going to die, mothers floating by
And when you grow up and then you see that there are ideas in the sky, you can catch them if you try
And when you grow old and then you know that you are surely going to die, remember your life and try
And think about the old friends, the ones that got away
And think about the old friends that aren't so far away anymore
And when you get there put on your tape and throw a flower in her hair, at the Spanish Carpet Fair
Lay me down in the grass girl, lay mе down in the weeds
Your desperation for control has laid you down again
Do what you wanna do girl, you always do what you want to do girl
But your dеsperation for control has laid you down again
[French/Spanish interlude]
And then you wake up into a Spanish Carpet Fair
Lay me down in the grass girl, lay me down in the weeds
Your desperation for control has laid you down again
And when you grow up and then you see that there are ideas in the sky, you can catch them if you try
And when you grow old and then you know that you are surely going to die, remember your life and try
And think about the old friends, the ones that got away
And think about the old friends that aren't so far away anymore
And when you get there put on your tape and throw a flower in her hair, at the Spanish Carpet Fair
Lay me down in the grass girl, lay mе down in the weeds
Your desperation for control has laid you down again
Do what you wanna do girl, you always do what you want to do girl
But your dеsperation for control has laid you down again
[French/Spanish interlude]
And then you wake up into a Spanish Carpet Fair
Lay me down in the grass girl, lay me down in the weeds
Your desperation for control has laid you down again
