TORI AMOS LYRICS - Scarlet's Walk

"Scarlet's Walk"



if you're a thought

you will want me

to think you

and i did invite

a guest up until

you announced

you had moved in

"what do you plan to do with all your freedom?"

the new sheriff said,

quite proud of his badge

"you must admit the land is now in good hands"

yes, time will tell

that you just life your lamp



i will follow her on her path

scarlet's walk through the voilets

just tell your gods for me

all debts are off this year

they're free to leave

yes they're free to leave

leaving terra leaving terra



there was a time

when i thought

that her destiny

should've been mine

big brave nation

but instead her medicine

now forgotten

"what do you plan to do with all your stories"

the new sheriff said,

quite proud of his badge

we'll weave them through

every rocket's red glare

and huddled masses

you just lift your lamp

i will follow.

if you're a thought

you will want me

to think you

and i did and did.
