Clementine Lyrics

Clementine lyrics

She heard a voice from so far away

It told that her mother had gone away

In the next door down the corridor

Her baby started to cry

Her whole life had just fell apart

There was nothing then the hurting started

In her heavy head on her knees she prayed

Could somebody help her



Clementine

It was never meant to be this way

It was never meant to be this way

Clementine

It was never meant to be this way

It was never meant to be this way

If only I'd told you yesterday



Got in her car and she speed away

Into the floodlit street down by your way

As the sun rose through the morning dew

Well she returned in such a state

Her baby knew not what was going on

But it could tell from the tears that something's wrong with mom

Desperation let out it's final scream

But our Clementine she didn't hear a damn word



Clementine

It was never meant to be this way

It was never meant to be this way

Clementine

It was never meant to be this way

It was never meant to be this way

If only I told you yesterday



Into the mirror she stared at herself

Asked is this my life is this what I'm here for

Her reflection choose not to respond

And so she froze to the spot like a cold stone statue

And bathed in her tears said  her time was through
