Robert Schumann - Album for the young, Opus 68 (1848) - knecht reprecht for Sound Therapy - Best of Classical Music Collective

Broke my heart on the road

Spent the weekend sewing the pieces back on

Crayons and dolls pass me by

Walking gets too boring when you learn how to fly

Not the homecoming kind

Take the top off and who knows what you might find

Won’t confess all my sins

You can bet all trying but you can’t always win

'Cause I’m a gypsy

Are you coming with me?

I might steal your clothes and wear them if they fit me

Never made agreements

Just like a gypsy

And I won’t back down 'cause life’s already bit me

And I won’t cry

I’m too young to die

If you’re gonna quit me

'Cause I’m a gypsy

('Cause I’m a gypsy)

I can’t hide what I’ve done

Scars remind me of just how far that I’ve come

To whom it may concern

Only run with scissors when you want to get hurt

'Cause I’m a gypsy

Are you coming with me?

I might steal your clothes and wear them if they fit me

I don’t make agreements

Just like a gypsy

And I won’t back down 'cause life’s already bit me

And I won’t cry

I’m too young to die

If you’re gonna quit me

'Cause I’m a gypsy

And I say

«Hey, you!

You’re no fool if you say 'No'»

Ain’t it just the way life goes?

People fear what they don’t know

Come along for the ride (oh, yeah)

Come along for the ride (ooh)

'Cause I’m a gypsy

Are you coming with me?

I might steal your clothes and wear them if they fit me

Never made agreements

Just like a gypsy

And I won’t back down 'cause life’s already bit me

And I won’t cry

I’m too young to die

If you’re gonna quit me

'Cause I’m a gypsy
