letra de greek lightning - jez lowe and the bad pennies
i promised to show you greek lightning
oh and your heart it was easily won
away from the drinking and fighting
with nights in the taverns and days in the sun
we could leave drunken sat-rday nights
and the cold damp wednesday sign-on
and see new skies lit up with greek lightning
yes i promised to show you greek lightning
oh and your heart it was easily won
me words had a way so exciting
just like they always did you shoulda known
’cause time staggered on and you watched as i fell
into booze, bl–dy bad temper and h-ll
but i always just managed to win you with talk of greek lightning
(chorus)
and dreams let you down, they just let you down
but they never leave you, no they never leave you
at the wettest of durham big meetings
oh how your heart it was easily won
i shouted for tunes by the beatles
not that fat man from athens they kept puttin’ on
but the beer got me singin’ to his serenade
and you laughed all embarrassed in your lemonade
and i told you that one day i’d light up your sky with greek lightning
but many big meetings and chances have happened
oh since your heart it was easily won
your hopes have grown slim as i’ve fattened
on six pints a night ’til me dole money’s gone
then i weep drunkard’s tears all over your hands
sometimes call you a cow, then i think you’re me mam
then you watch as i look for that flash in the pan of greek lightning
(chorus)
so we always make do for a week or a day
with the hot sands of redcar or whitley bay
and look to that high northern sky for a flash of greek lightning
(chorus)
no they never leave you, and i’ll never leave you
