lirik lagu lacy rose - the ballad of polly peachum
here stands the bride
a porcelain figure in the window shop
her husband bought her just last night
she’s young and she’s reckless
madded for a bargained life
once i dreamt of a man like you
a scar-faced criminal, a two-bit crook
but now i’m married in a stolen room
to a groom leaving soon
look in the mirror
the gl-ss cracks, the innocent reflection fades
how quickly some of those can change
ah mack, since you left
your bl–dy knife is all that remains
once i dreamt of a man like you
a scar-faced criminal, a two-bit crook
but now the wedding bells chime out of tune
you’re my groom, left too soon
what made me think that a sailing ship
is better even if it’s broken
i should have kept, should have kept
my wooden boat tied to the golden harbor
once i dreamt of a man like you
a scar-faced criminal, a two-bit crook
but now my only light’s a paper moon
you’re my groom, left too soon
what did i learn
lead not with a heart, but always with a mind
my father warned me, “love is blind”
oh god, if i’d listened maybe i would be all right
once i dreamt of a man like you
a scar-faced criminal, a two-bit crook
but ever since i spent a year a wife in ruin
i was shied, never known, my cruel life i had hoped for
