lirik lagu carole king - a night this side of dying
i remember one young sister with rainbows in her eyes
standing on the corner with the afternoon’s supply
she spoke of other places, perhaps a better road
then she asked if i could tell her where they
kept the mother lode
like a night this side of dying
her day’s inside the dropper on the shelf
when she hears her lifeline crying
not a thing you say can stop her
when she just can’t stop herself
i remember that july, the panic and the heat
the savage shine of summer, the trychnine in the street
the way thay sold each other for a favor in gl-ssine
the best of friends sold brothers for a
dime of quinine dreams
like a night this side of dying
her day’s inside the dropper on the shelf
like the shelter she’s been buying
not a thing i’ve got can save her
when she just can’t save herself
she just can’t save herself
