Romie - Auburn Lyrics

I fear for the morning to come
Pack up my things and then I will be gone for long
Am I strong, am I weak?
Am I the woman willing to seek love
At the end of the road
Thank goodness that I have been told by now
That a woman is not made for the men to cover up their pain

And all my life
I've tried, I've tried, I've tried
And I've seen it all before

Yes, I've seen it all before
I've seen the steps that lead out of this door
I've seen the poems of Cohen on my bed
And the list with books that I should have read by now
I've seen the look in your eyes
I've seen the flower bouquet doomed to die
I've seen the sky turning auburn red over our heads
And the words that should've been said

And all my life
I've tried, I've tried, I've tried
And I've seen it all before

And wide open lands capture the essence of change
And slowly I begin to understand

"Are we late for the sky?", you ask
You've seen the people in the streets passing by
You've seen they're as lonely as a straying dog looking for a bone
They're looking for love
Well, I've been looking for love, too
I've seen promises fading to blue
I stumbled, I fell and I climbed and I can tell
That now I've got nothing more to lose

But is there still time
Left for another try
'Cause I've seen it all before

And wide open seas
Capture a bare moment to breathe
And finally I feel peace
What is it that you adore,
What is it that you came looking for,
Are you brave enough to take a look at the score?
I've seen this road, I've seen it before,
I've passed these walls and I walked this floor
Now take me somewhere new
Where I haven't been to
