Текст песни All These Things — Beth Thornley

I thought that I was finally done
I thought the day had finally come
For reasons I will not explain I left it all and walked away
And they didn’t move as I went by I thought that sleeping dogs would lie
But they don’t sleep at all
No, they don’t sleep at all
Oh, all the things I left behind
All the cuts made to the vine
The mouth, the hand, and heart, not mine
Entangled, knotted, hooked, and tied
Oh, all these things
All these things I thought I’d left behind were with me all the time.
As far and wide as I could go I did not care, I did not know
I left no crumb, I left no care
Nothing that would show them where
And all that time I would not see
They’d been keeping up with me
'Cause they don’t sleep at all
No, they don’t sleep at all
Oh, all the things I left behind
All the cuts made to the vine
The mouth, the hand, and heart, not mine
Entangled, knotted, hooked, and tied
Oh, all these things
All these things I thought I left behind were with me all the time.
As gone as Clementine
Still I hadn’t found any higher ground
Only thing I could show
was a shot-through room and some soleless shoes
All the things I left behind
All the cuts made to the vine
The mouth, the hand, and heart, not mine
Entangled, knotted, hooked, and tied
Oh, all these things
All these things I thought I left behind were with me all the time
…with me all the time.
