Gates Of The Country(Album Version) - Black Lab

April back in
New York the thirty first floor
It seems somehow every thing's changed
The kitchen too small plates on the wall
The sound of machinery
May where have you been
Who were you running with
Wasn't he someone you used to call home
Where is the ring
Where is the boy who went traveling alone
She's much better without me
She walks through the gates of the country her hands at her side
And I smile as
I watch her walk by
Somehow I see there are ships in her eyes yeah she is better off now
June the curtain is shut the patterns are cut
The maid who will wake you at dawn
Pulls out a chair pulls down your hair
It's just like you wanted
July what's going on
What are you running from
Why are you sleeping alone on the floor
Some people change others hang on till they can't anymore
She's much better without me
She walks through the gates of the country her hands at her side
And I smile as
I watch her walk by
And somehow
She's much better without me
She walks through the gates of the country her hands in the air
And I smile as
I watch her walk by
Somehow I see there are ships in her eyes yeah she is better off now
