The Wrong Year

[Verse 1] Grey Jane was a river child Born down by the river wild Said, "Hey what I wanna be Nobody's gonna intervene" [Chorus 1] And she wants you But you won't do And it won't leave you alone And the rain falls On the wrong year And it won't leave you alone It won't leave you alone [Verse 2] Could be that he's into you Could be that the obverse is true Struck down as a summer child Ten steps just to run a mile [Chorus 2] And he wants you But you won't do And it won't leave you alone And the rain falls On the wrong year And it won't leave you alone It won't leave you alone It won't leave you alone [Bridge] The spirit's willing The flesh is getting bored The speaker's blaring Out some long-forgotten chord Some misbegotten, long-forgotten chord [Verse 3] Sing me some Eidolon And I'll sleep all the winter long Till then I can only be Nobody's gonna intervene [Chorus 1] [Outro] It won't leave you alone It won't leave you alone
