One Season by The Roches Lyrics
[Verse 1]
One season I was born
Fell down like an acorn
I am the only tree
And everybody leaves
[Chorus]
I've got to get away from you
Mmm
[Verse 2]
Bud growing up at me
Resentful face I see (Face I see)
A harsh light seems to damn you
Is it because I am you?
[Chorus]
I've got to get away from you
I need to find a love that's true
[Verse 3]
Loose leaf lay on the bed
Hair falling around her head
I watched her from the shore
I can't do any more
[Chorus]
I've got to get away from you
I'll come and visit you in the zoo
[Verse 4]
We go on arguing
No one can say a thing
Set down your key and trumpet
Go have a dream and hump it
[Chorus]
I've got to get away from you
You don't know what you put me through
[Verse 5]
Ah
Prized fighter with bruised pride
A fuse blew when you tried
To fix the worn out wire
And set the house on fire
[Chorus]
I've got to get away from you
If only for a day or two
You don't know what you put me through
I'll come and visit you in the zoo
I need to find a love that's true
I want to get away with you
One season I was born
Fell down like an acorn
I am the only tree
And everybody leaves
[Chorus]
I've got to get away from you
Mmm
[Verse 2]
Bud growing up at me
Resentful face I see (Face I see)
A harsh light seems to damn you
Is it because I am you?
[Chorus]
I've got to get away from you
I need to find a love that's true
[Verse 3]
Loose leaf lay on the bed
Hair falling around her head
I watched her from the shore
I can't do any more
[Chorus]
I've got to get away from you
I'll come and visit you in the zoo
[Verse 4]
We go on arguing
No one can say a thing
Set down your key and trumpet
Go have a dream and hump it
[Chorus]
I've got to get away from you
You don't know what you put me through
[Verse 5]
Ah
Prized fighter with bruised pride
A fuse blew when you tried
To fix the worn out wire
And set the house on fire
[Chorus]
I've got to get away from you
If only for a day or two
You don't know what you put me through
I'll come and visit you in the zoo
I need to find a love that's true
I want to get away with you
