Crosby Stills Nash And Young - House of Broken Dreams lyrics

(page/plant)

Well I just got into town today

To find my girl who’s gone away

She took the greyhound at the general store

I searched myself I searched the town

When I finally did sit down

I find myself no wiser than before

She said we couldn’t do no wrong

No other love could be so strong

She locked up my heart in her bottom drawer

Now she took my heart she took my keys

From in my old blue dungarees

And I’ll never go to texas anymore

* chorus: now my baby’s gone I don’t know what to do

She took my love and walked right out the door

And if I ever find that girl I know one thing for sure

I’m gonna give her something like she never had before

I took her love at seventeen

A little late these days it seems

But they said heaven is well worth waiting for

I took her word I took it all

Beneath the sign that said u-haul

She left angels hangin round for more

Chorus

I thought I had it all sewn up

Our love, a plot, a pick-up truck

But folks said she was after something more

I never did quite understand

All that talk about rockin’ bands

But they just rolled my doll right out the door

Oh yeah, they just rolled my doll right out the door!
