The Ballad of Emmerson Lonestar - Mystery Jets

Written by：William Rees/Henry Harrison

Just a lonestar in the sky treading the night

Cutting loose the mess you left taking flight

From coast to coast you move like a ghost

Trying to break the past

So follow the road to wherever it goes

And strike up another chance

Lonestar counting all the people

And the passing time

You are high above the mountain

And the column vine

She borrowed a whole right through your brain

At citrus heights

Fallen angel of her you made by first light

Well ain't it sad

When you feel it this bad

And your body burns to know

The shape of a limb

As the night bird sings

Our friend in afterglow

Lonestar counting all the people

And the passing time

You are watching all the wishes

Dying on the vine

Lonestar flies above the mountain

And column vine

How far do I have to wonder

Before the dream is mine

Well now you know

There's no way back

To your old life

Like two trains

On the same track you collide

The roses are red

Are the words that you said

As she lay by your side

But all you could think

As you stood by the sink

Was wash me away with the tide

This time gonna show how I feel

This time when our love is real

This time gonna know where I stand

This time gonna be in command

This time when show how I feel

This time when our love is real

This time gonna know where I stand

This time wanna be in command

This time wanna show how I feel

This time when our love is real

This time when I know where I stand

This time wanna be in command

This time wanna show how I feel

This time when our love is real

This time when I know where I stand

This time gonna be in command
