Cranes (Kölsch Remix) - Monkey Safari

She's been making plans to go (you know) Hit the bright lights, hit the road To the city lights this time Just don't worry I'll be fine And she eats the food she bought Cause it's colored with a thought But the thought could never know Its lonely and empty too She's been making plans to go (you know) Hit the bright lights, hit the road To the city lights this time Just don't worry I'll be fine And is it all because of you? Everytime I look at you If I look back nevermind Just don't worry, I'll be fine Never look back, nevermind Just don't worry I'll be fine Never look back, nevermind Just don't worry I'll be fine

I tried to drink it away I tried to put one in the air I tried to dance it away I tried to change it with my hair I ran my credit card bill up Thought a new dress make it better I tried to work it away But that just made me even sadder I tried to keep myself busy I ran around circles Think I made myself dizzy I slept it away, I sexed it away I read it away Away, away, away, away, away, away Away, away, away, away, away Well, it's like cranes in the sky Sometimes I don't wanna feel those metal clouds Yeah, it's like cranes in the sky Sometimes I don't wanna feel those metal clouds I tried to run it away Thought then my head be feeling clearer I traveled 70 states Thought moving 'round make me feel better I tried to let go my lover Thought if I was alone then maybe I could recover To write it away or cry it away (don't you cry, baby) Away Away, away, away, away, away Away, away, away, away, away But it's like cranes in the sky Sometimes I don't wanna feel those metal clouds Yeah, it's like cranes in the sky Sometimes I don't wanna feel those metal clouds Away, away, away, away, away Away, away, away, away, away Away, away, away, away, away Away, away, away, away, away Away, away, away, away, away

Claire was the mayor's daughter, knees went weak when I saw her We tussled for a summer when I walked in on her and Clyde And so she'd often wander with every boy in Potter Many suitors died with honour in war between the states And Clyde was a cavalry man when he got home to him she ran But he had eyes for Western lands and left her behind So Claire settled down, her husband moved her out of town They tried to lay her past to rest, hung up those evening gowns Now Jeremiah was a logger we all knew he's off his rocker Thought Claire to be his lover, much to her surprise Her children loved their mother, towards their father she grew fonder Her hair just turned blonder, beauty stood the test of time Then word got around, that Clyde was back in town By a way of manifest destiny he had gained himself renown In the year seventy-five, ten years after Lincoln died Claire kissed the kids goodnight, snuck off to meet her old friend Clyde Now Jeremiah saw that chance, his own twisted sick romance Denying his advances Claire was never seen alive He hung for what he'd done, we caught him bloody with his gun He never told us where she lay, but I know that Claire would run We never found that girl from Potter, who'd so often wander Till more than a century later a builder found her in the ground Beneath the cranes of Potter, where Jeremiah shot her There lies the mayor's daughter, two feet down Beneath the cranes of Potter, hair no longer blonder Beneath the cranes of Potter, in her finest evening gown
