Here She Comes-a-Tumblin' (Sheet Music) - Birdeatsbaby

When I was seventeen

I met a man

Gave him all my dreams

Told him all my plans

Plans to rule the earth

Plans to tear apart

Plans to be the queen

Of his broken heart

The sorrow is…

When I was seventeen

I met a boy

(and) together we would dream

but always destroy

So in love with his pain

Turning deathly pale

He would always reign

In our fairytale

The sorrow is …

Young and full of pride

We raged and spat and screamed:

«Put out all their eyes

Never let them see»

His heart was always drunk

Pity for the ones

The ones who knew him well

Now I never will

When I was seventeen

He took me in his arms

And he swore on to me

To keep my safe from harm

But everything must end

And everyone must pay

My fairytale friend

He only fades away

When I was seventeen

I met a man

Gave him all my dreams

Told him all my plans

Now I’ll never tell

All that I have seen

And we said farewell

When I was seventeen.
