Valerie lyrics translation: EMMYLOU HARRIS Valerie song texte and letras EMMYLOU HARRIS Valerie tab, paroles and testo EMMYLOU HARRIS Valerie Karaoke and Music Video - none yet
To the east the factories stand
Like fire-breathing dragons against the sky and from their throats
A scarlet river burns itself into smoky lullabies.
Over neon and fluorescent skie
Valerie can you hear those engines drone
I wanted to go to Mexico but
I`m stranded here alone
And once I knew a true love
It`s been three years since he`s gone
And if I could get that feeling back
I`d give up everything I own
Sixteen days since I left Corona
And I traveled to this carnival town near Alberndee
And I rode the coaster there on the fairground
Twisted backbone of a beast that never heals
And I left some skin on fortune`s wheel
Valerie can you hear those engines drone
I wanted to go to Mexico but
I`m stranded here alone
Everything`s in slow motion now in this little border town
I`ve come so close from so far
Just to hide behind these windows
Here from the world outside
I watch those cars and trucks raise trails of dust
Down the road as they pass by
Valerie can you hear those engines drone
I wanted to go to Mexico but
I`m stranded here alone
