emmylou harris – love wore a halo (back before the war) كلمات اغاني
[intro]
one, two, three
[verse 1]
she owned a hotel on the jersey shore
she made her living sending sailors door to door
he was the small one with a crooked smile
oh, but he made her eyes light up like the heavens on the fourth of july
she ran the numbers, say she ran ’em clean
and those porcelain hands could keep a ledger even in her sleep
while he workеd the seabees in the philippinеs
they say she made more money than you or i will ever see
[chorus]
love was an anchor on the jersey shore
if you were looking for love, boys, you could’ve found it in ’44
’cause love wore a halo back before the war
when the men loved the women and the women knew what men were for
[verse 2]
it was in the winter when he came back home
he had to hold those porcelain hands just to keep her warm
so they had a daughter, they named her stephanie anne
hey, they sent her off to vassar to find herself a family man
[bridge]
now she sold the hotel, it belongs to me
i watch those sailors come and go like the waves in the sea
i hung their portraits up in the honeymoon suite
i hear they’re fishin’ their lives away down in the florida keys
[chorus]
love was an anchor on the jersey shore
if you were looking for love, boys, you could’ve found it in ’44
’cause love wore a halo back before the war (before the war)
when the men loved the women and the women knew what men were for
yeah, love was an anchor on the jersey shore
if you were looking for love, boys, you could’ve found it in ’44
’cause love wore a halo back before the war (before the war)
when the men loved the women and the women knew what men were for
when the men loved the women and the women knew what men were for
yeah, when the men loved the women and the women knew what men were for
