Dead Blonde Girlfriend – Sweet Bohemia lyrics

Let me tell you a story but where to begin
From the start to the end and the all in between
Throw this cautionary tale to the wind
I don’t want to cheat on a game I can’t win
I was younger much younger than you
I found the path to the fountain of truth
I didn’t know better so what was the use
There were so many reasons and no good excuse

Those days are gone my sweet Bohemia
Those days are gone again

Misguided and fooled by the big city lights
The second and the drugs and the rock and roll night
I didn’t know what was wrong I didn’t know what was right
I didn’t know how to love but I knew how to fight
Now there is no place I can call home
Rattled around in my dust and my bones
I never saw me I was not shown
To want to have something I can call my own

Those days are gone my sweet Bohemia
Those days are gone again

Every dog seems to want their day
From the playground to graveyard
To come what as May
Didn’t know what to do didn’t know what to say
It’s easy to run when you can’t walk away
Who wants to win when you’re so use to losing
The meaning of life can get so confusing
What have you done to get what your doing
It’s not up to me to draw all your conclusions
It might make sense this matter of fact
When you’re so far gone while fuck it why go back
Slip through the smiles slide through the cracks
There’s an end to the means and this prologue is past

Those days are gone my sweet Bohemia
Those days are gone again
