Subject: CRD/LYR: I m Allowed - Buffalo Tom
Yesterday I posted a request for the lyrics to I m allowed by Buffalo
Tom. Thanks to Ben McTernan (
[email protected]) I m
able to post the song (along with the chords I figured out myself).
Just like an earlier post, I know the song from a semi-unplugged album
from a Dutch radio show (2 Meter Sessies, vol.5, Radio Records
477702-2, distributed by Sony), so it can slightly differ from the
original.
I m allowed - Buffulo Tom
-
Waited for an answer
Cause I waited twenty-five years
They stopped my bleeding
But could never stop all those tears
Waiting for the day when
You came out from beneath all that weight
I ve tried to lift it
But it seems I got there too late
Just too late
Just too late
I m allowed
-
Came to the party
But I got my own signals crossed
Thought I was welcome
But I felt like I should get lost
Know that I m older
Cause I feel that everywhere
I could talk to no one
Cause I knew not one person there
No one s there
They just stared
Cause they re allowed
As vivid as a car-wreck
Watch them dripping off highway ramps
She came to me smiling
With her heart underneath both her hands
She spoke of a French boy
At least two times through the night
It could have been the liquor
Or the music, but that is alright
That s alright
She s allowed
I m allowed
I m allowed
I m allowed
