Marianne Faithfull - That Was the Day lyrics

Going home in a trailer filled with Canada Dry Looking forward to being with you Got in to the broadway and what do I find ? Some lady's been sleeping there, too I was dreamin' of our meetin' all down the M1 'Cause I hadn't seen you for so long Then out of the blue, something came down and warned me And I sat there and wrote down this song That was the day that the coke came to Nashville That was the day I laughed till I cried That was the day all my dreams turned to ashes And I lost my blues and I smiled Well, I walked in the door and I heard you two laughing Just like I'd hoped that we'd do So I went up the stairs, left your keys on the table And I wrote on the mirror, 'We're through!' That was the day that the coke came to Nashville That was the day that I had, honey That was the day that the coke came to Nashville And I've got the blues out just bad Going home on a train, going back to my mother Feeling better already, keep telling myself: 'Don't you cry, you'll forget him and find a new lover So let's sit back and drink to his health.' That was the day that the coke came to Nashville That was the day I laughed till I cried That was the day that I felt my heart breaking Ain't it funny, after all I've survived Ain't it funny, after all I've survived
