Bent Van Looy High And Dry Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Don't wanna go
On secondhand adventures
Can't afford to loose that spring in my step
You know what
It's all we've got
Ask your one-legged waiter

The final straw
I couldn't really tell you
Who is a passenger and who is a friend
If we pack
In the act
Who's tears taste more salty

[Chorus]
High and dry
Deep and wide
Crowded
God forsaken
Cruel eternal divine
Paris can you break me

[Verse 2]
Now is this home
Or technicolor cardboard
Let me tell you all about this town
Your took me in
For my sins
Loved me like no other

I hear her sighs
Are deeper than the river
And when she smiles
It runs dry
Now it's time to get the tab
That's a wrap
Call me in the morning [Chorus]
High and dry
Deep and wide
Crowded
God forsaken
Cruel eternal divine
Paris can you break me
High and dry
Deep and wide
Crowded
God forsaken
Cruel eternal divine
Paris you have made me

[Bridge]
You couldn't tell I once was new in this town
I saw the shadows move as I did my rounds
These lonely summers always get me down

And then of course
I could have shown you the sights
If I only had it in me tonight
I guess you're on your own

[Chorus]
High and dry
Deep and wide
Crowded
God forsaken
Cruel eternal divine
Paris can you break me
High and dry
Deep and wide
Crowded
God forsaken
Cruel eternal divine
Paris you have made me
