Worn Out - Ziggy Alberts

They said to us when we were young

«Wear suncream if you’re going in the sun»

They said that «the sun it does things to your skin

That are well beyond your years»

And I wonder why it seems that all these goods things

Just grow and die

Maybe that’s just love it lifts you up and it kills you

All at the same damn time

Would you be my Thelma Plum?

Sing me songs when we’re home alone

When the suns kissed my eyes one too many times

You can lay me down

And if my eyes flicker in doubt, you can just say

«Well maybe you’re worn out»

Maybe you’re worn, maybe you’re worn out

Maybe you’re worn, maybe you’re worn out

I saw you there across the crowd

West Coast girl singing songs of mine

How I wish I got to learn your name and look

Well, I wish that I wasn’t so tired

And I wonder why it seems that all these good things

Just come and leave

But have you noticed that we only count the hours

And we’ve cut down all the best old trees

Would you be my Thelma Plum?

Sing me songs when we’re home alone

When the suns kissed my eyes one to many times

You can lay me down

And if my eyes flicker in doubt, you can just say

«Well maybe you’re worn out»

Maybe you’re worn, maybe you’re worn out

Maybe you’re worn, maybe you’re worn out

Maybe you’re worn out

Grab a cup of tea go to bed

I’ll kiss you on your eyelids when

The morning comes to wake you up

Maybe you’re worn out

Grab a cup of tea go to bed

I’ll kiss you on your eyelids when

The morning comes to wake you up

Maybe you’re worn out

Grab a cup of tea go to bed

I’ll kiss you on your eyelids when

The morning comes to wake you up

Maybe you’re worn out

Grab a cup of tea go to bed

I’ll kiss you on your eyelids when

The morning comes to wake you up
