Mahogany Dread - Hiss Golden Messenger

Well I can’t go back, I know that now

But who said I wanted to?

When I cut my hair and I rode away

Yes, on that bright day

With the sun in my eyes I maybe told myself a lie

The dead are here, they never go away

So I never ask them to

The misery of love is a funny thing

The more it hurts

The more you think

You can stand a little pain

I can feel how you want the reins laid bare

Do you think it’s up to me?

Oh my baby girl with a song so fair

The more she knows

The more she cries

I maybe told a couple lies

Girl of mine with silver in your hair

I still want you

It’s getting hard to be easy now

A couple of kids

Mahogany dread

But happy days are still ahead
