elles bailey - ballad of a broken dream كلمات الأغنية

[part 1]
there’s a jukebox in the corner
and the bud light neon glows
and he’s on the stage, guitar in hand
with a name n0body knows
there’s an old man rolling a cigarette
a woman nursing her wine
he sings his lonesome memories
and he remembers his whole life

and his one and only child
raven haired and deathly pale
terrified she’d lose it all
to the needle and the nail
and every time he tries to save her
she slips further and further away
the only place he’s worth a dime
are in these songs that he plays
so let him play, ooohh
so let him play, ooohh, oh

[part 2]
burned so many bridges
only one or two remain
and the ones who choked on all his smoke
through the burden of the flame
yeah, they laugh about the good all days
’bout the brothers who reminisce
how can a man like moses end up just like judas kiss
and that big black dog runs down the man
who strains to lift his head
good old days fly high as a kite
and the bad ones wish him well
there’s the sound of fear and shame
as he’s tuning that old six string
that he hides behind and lives inside
with these songs that he sings
so let him sing, ooohh
so let him sing, ooohh, oh

[piano solo]

[part 3]
a big fish in a small town
they called him the next big thing
but the battle scars they dealt him cards
got between the in_between
there are times where he almost believes
he was worthy of the fame
but here he sits, playing for tips
and no one knows his name

and the potential weighs so heavy with
the weight of “could have been”
and now he’s just a never was
playing rooms that no one’s in
but you’re safest in the shadows
when your mind’s your enemy
it’s the torment of his talent
that will never set him free
so let him be
ooohh, it’s just a ballad of a broken dream
ooohh, oh, it’s just a ballad of a broken dream
ooohh, it’s just a ballad of a broken dream
ooohh, oh, it’s just a ballad of a broken dream
