Christenings lyrics

Artist  : Blackfield 
Song : Christenings



 Send "Christenings" Ringtone to your Cell 

 I met you in a record store.

You had slept
in the clothes you wore.

But I knew I'd
seen you somewhere before.



What
happened to your guitar?

And what happened
to the prettiest star?

Can you still play
the songs that got you so far?



Hey
you with your shadow in the gutter,

how low
have you got to go before you're through?

High times and vodka in the mornings,

all
your memories are coming out of your shoes.

Black dog sitting in the park,

odd looks
from the mothers of the devil's own.

Shoplifting, getting your essentials.

Gatecrashing christenings and funerals,

and weddings too.



I used to see
you all the time on MTV.

Read your life
story in a magazine.

I guess you thought
that's the way it would always be.

But I
believe in you.

'Cause I think that you
want me to.

Though I never really liked
your songs, it's true.
