Welch, Gillian - Dark Turn Of Mind Lyrics






Take me and love me if you want me
Don't ever treat me unkind
'Cause I had that trouble already
And it left me with a dark turn of mind

Now I see the bones in the river
And I feel the wind through the pine
And I hear the shadows a-calling
To a girl with a dark turn of mind

But oh ain't the nighttime so lovely to see?
Don't all the nightbirds sing sweetly?
You'll never know how happy I'll be
When the sun's going down

And leave me if I'm feeling too lonely
Full as the fruit on the vine
You know some girls are bright as the morning
And some have a dark turn of mind

You know some girls are bright as the morning
And some girls are blessed with a dark turn of mind

    you know that cone shaped asian rice paddy style hats work way better at keeping the sun off you than that style of cowboy hat. i don't get it, do people wear that style of cowboy hat to fit in, be accepted, be cool and hip with that style? it sure as hell isn't because of tradition or identity. why in the hell would someone flap the edges up like that on cowboy hats? is it supposed to be just an esthetic for looks? i don't get it, i thought cowboys were suppose to be rough and tough, living useful simplistic lives, it seems like the cowboy scene that you see threw media and entertainment is no different than the runway drag queen model scene.

    "Dark Turn Of Mind"

    Take me and love me if you want me
    Don't ever treat me unkind
    'Cause I had that trouble already
    And it left me with a dark turn of mind

    Now I see the bones in the river
    And I feel the wind through the pine
    And I hear the shadows a-calling
    To a girl with a dark turn of mind

    But oh ain't the nighttime so lovely to see?
    Don't all the nightbirds sing sweetly?
    You'll never know how happy I'll be
    When the sun's going down

    And leave me if I'm feeling too lonely
    Full as the fruit on the vine
    You know some girls are bright as the morning
    And some have a dark turn of mind

    You know some girls are bright as the morning
    And some girls are blessed with a dark turn of mind
