Martha Wainwright - Who Was I Kidding? Lyrics

Artist: Martha Wainwright

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Folk

  • Songwriters: Martha Wainwright

Left the pain before the dawn
She never thought it would or could be easy
Been inclined to carry on
Hold my hard head and watch you walk out on me

See the tears one by one
They fall down my hard head forever, forevermore
Fall around into the ground
Deep down far as you can

Go out tonight and meet the dawn again
It'd be nice to see an old friend
Learn to accept the things I am
Never liked myself before now even less

When it rains it pours
Down my hard head forevermore, forever
Into the ground deep down far as you can
Who was I kidding? Who was I kidding?

Oh, your record label hasn't come through yet
You've gained some weight
And all you can think is
When the Romeo's gonna show

Oh, and I know, babe
You're the best thing yet
But take it from me
I would if I could fuck it all

Your mother loves you
Your daddy needs you
Your brother feeds you

Far as you can
Who was I kidding?
