Cursive - Sierra Lyrics
In the desert, where the cities are made of gold,Theres a girl playing hopscotch with pink ribbon pigtails.And hermom calls out from an apartment balcony,Come on, baby! your bath is ready! its almost time for sleep!And I wonder whos the father...And I wonder what they call her - sierra.Does her mother smoke, or does she jog every morning?Does she drink when she thinks about me?Or doesnt she need to drink... does she have a man who works a nine to five?Does he come home to kiss our young sierra, tuck her in and say goodnight?(and an extra kiss for mama...)I want that kiss, that kid, that apartment.Im ready to settle down now, so get that man out of my bed.I want my daughter back now, I want to kiss her,Tuck her in and say, goodnight, my baby girl, sierra.Sierra, sierra, sierra, sierra,Ill never know who you are, and I dont deserve to.My little girl, we wouldve been so... oh, nevermind.But Im ready to settle down now - yeah, Im ready to leave that wrecking ball behind.I could be your carpenter, and you could be my twinkling north star oer the desert sky.
