Martha's Foolish Ginger Songtext

von Tori Amos

Take a walk down memory lane
With me
Past a watermelon stand on the way
Thinking I had everything we'd need on Martha's Foolish Ginger
You were late
How could I forget what you said -
The part about that Love taking over your life
Was not your plan
If those harbour lights had just been 1/2 mile inland who knows what I would have done
If those harbour lights had just been 1/2 mile inland who knows what we would have done
Through the cliffs out of the Bay I went
From the starboard side
I could block my visions and my passions -
They keep me awake A familiar voice
"Hi. Surprise. I've been searching trying to find you"
I couldn't speak my hands reached for Martha's Foolish Ginger
We talked until the moon came up
About how life without love isn't worth very much
Then I played this song
"Memories that we have yet" you said
"To make like our Burning Bed...."
Love, don't mistake that it wasn't safe on
Martha's Foolish Ginger
