Goy’s Scars
I saw your scars
And they really saddened me
In the melancholic summer heat
We met in the ring of love
Over the busy city streets
Heat hung like a veil
Three years before you
With nothing much to tell
On the night I met you
I felt like an empty shell
Hey-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh
Ain’t your heart in so much pain
Hey-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh
Ain’t your heart in so much pain
You Don’t like when I look in your eyes
You always have to turn away
There’s something you have to hide
Something that your eyes betray
I dream I can save you
And take you from this place
I miss your tender kisses
For only a brief escape
Hey-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh
Ain’t your heart in so much pain
Hey-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh
Ain’t your heart in so much pain
I saw your scars
And it really saddened me
I saw your scars
And it really saddened me
