The Wrong Year

Lyrics

Gray Jean was a river child
 Born down by the river wild
 ♪
 Said hey, what ya wanna be?
 Nobody's gonna? Me
 ♪
 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
 ♪
 Could be that he's into you
 Could be that the opposite's true
 ♪
 Struck down as a summer child
 Ten steps just to run a mile
 ♪
 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
 ♪
 Your spirit's weiling
 Flesh is getting old
 Speaker's blaring out some long forgotten chord
 Some missbegotten long forgotten chord
 ♪
 Sing me some mandolin
 And I'll sleep all the winter long
 ♪
 Till then I can only be, nobody's gonna? Me
 ♪
 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
