Tori Amos - Snow Cherries from France (2006 Remaster)

[00:06.95] I knew a boy who would not share his bike
[00:12.30] Oh, but he let me go sailing
[00:17.43] I swore that I could survive any storm
[00:22.98] Oh, then he let me go
[00:28.03] "Can you launch rockets from here?"
[00:31.68] Boy, I've done it for years, right over my head
[00:38.35] And when I promised my hand
[00:42.14] He promised me back snow cherries from France
[00:48.67] All that summer we travelled the world
[00:53.78] Never leaving his own back garden
[00:59.35] Girls, I didn't know just what it could be
[01:04.36] Oh, but he let me go sailing
[01:10.56] You question me, "Can you ride anything?"
[01:16.05] Lord, do you mean like your mood swings?
[01:21.17] Invaders and traders with the best intentions
[01:26.82] May convince you to go
[01:32.09] "They look like pirates from here"
[01:35.33] Boy, I've been one for years, just keeping my head
[01:42.16] And when I promised my hand
[01:45.65] You promised me back snow cherries from France
[01:52.48] All that summer we travelled the world
[01:57.54] Never leaving his own back garden
[02:03.22] Girls, I didn't know just what it could be
[02:08.35] Oh, but he let me go sailing
[02:16.40]
[02:27.31] And then one day he said, "Girl, it's been nice
[02:32.89] Oh, but I have to go sailing"
[02:37.98] With cinnamon lips that did not match his eyes
[02:43.93] Oh, then he let me go
[02:50.14]
