The Decemberists - The Wrong Year lyrics

Grey Jane was a river child
Born down by the river wild
Said, «Hey what I wanna be Nobody’s gonna intervene»
And she wants you
But you won’t do And it won’t leave you alone
And the rain falls
On the wrong year
And it won’t leave you alone
It won’t leave you alone
Could be that he’s into you
Could be that the obverse is true
Struck down as a summer child
Ten steps just to run a mile
And he wants you
But you won’t do And it won’t leave you alone
And the rain falls
On the wrong year
And it won’t leave you alone
It won’t leave you alone
It won’t leave you alone
The spirit’s willing
(Uhhh)
The flesh is getting bored
(Uhhh)
The speaker’s blaring
Out some long-forgotten chord
Some misbegotten, long-forgotten chord
Sing me some Eidolon
And I’ll sleep all the winter long
Till then I can only be Nobody’s gonna intervene
And she wants you
But you won’t do And it won’t leave you alone
And the rain falls
On the wrong year
And it won’t leave you alone
It won’t leave you alone
It won’t leave you alone
It won’t leave you alone
(Ahha)
