21 Years Songtext

von Robert Plant

21 times I sat and cried
21 times I slowly died
21 times I wondered how
Want my baby - she's gone somehow

Down the road I go - down so far
Down the road I go - I go so far alone
21 times I sat and cried
21 times I slowly died
21 dreams I saw subside
Down that road and don't go cryin' - no

My girl's gone, down the road
Said she would leave me never alone
I'm all gone - where's that leading me?
Oh, another got my woman - the lonesome blues got me

Here I stand now - my head in my hand
Found my woman - she's got another man
See my baby - she go
She gone some place but I don't know where
21 days I sat and cried
21 times I slowly died
21 dreams - I do
21 times I cried for you

My girl, she run down the road
She's left me now - I'm all alone
Worried blues, give me your right hand
Worried blues, please understand
It's 21 times that she made me cry
It's 21 years that I kissed goodbye
It's 21 times that she told me lies
21 dreams - oh, her eyes

Looked down the road as far as I could see
Man got my woman, but the blues got me
Oh, this ain't no living - no game alone
Everything I done - said it was wrong
But it's 21 times I sat and cried
It's 21 dreams - yes I cried
21 years that the little girl left
21 times - I cried - see the poor girl lied
