Counting Crows — A Murder of One 1994/Live at Elysée Montmartre Paris

Blue morning, blue morning Wrapped in strands of fist and bone Curiousity, little Kitten Doesn't have to mean you're on your own 'Cause you look outside your window He doesn't have to know We can talk a while, baby We can take it nice and slow All your life is such a shame, shame, shame All your love is just a dream, dream, dream Well are you happy where you're sleeping? Does he keep you safe and warm? Does he tell you when you're sorry? Does he tell you when you're wrong, wrong? Well, I've been watching you for hours It's been years since we were born We were perfect when we started Well, I've been wondering where we've gone All your life is such a shame, shame, shame All your love is just a dream, dream, dream Well, I dreamt I saw you walkin' Up a hillside in the snow Casting shadows on the winter sky As you stood there counting crows That's one for sorrow, two for joy Three for girls, four for boys Five for silver, six for gold Seven for a secret never ever to be told There's a bird that nests inside you Sleeping underneath your skin Oh no, but when you open up your wings to speak I wish you'd let me in All your life is such a shame, shame, shame All your love is just a dream, dream, dream Open up your eyes, you can see the flames, flames, flames Of your wasted life, you should be ashamed Should be ashamed, you should be ashamed Don't waste your life the way I waste mine Don't, don't, don't waste your life The way I waste my life No, no, 'cause you don't want to waste your life The way I waste my life You don't want to waste your life The way I waste my life It's a shame Change Change Change Change I'm hanging on You're all that's left to hold onto Well, I'm hanging on 'Cause you're all that's left to hold onto-to-to Well, I'm hanging on 'Cause you're all that's left to hold onto Well, I'm hanging on There's nobody left to hold onto Except
