Ashley Ford - Blackberries lyrics

You were just a boy,
I was twenty-five,
we stepped off a bridge,
crashed into the sky

We were looking for the dark
Soon we found the light
We went back to your room
Fucked our misery dry
and said goodbye

Fields of Blackberries
numb inside our tongues
we started to run
She stands brightly
ready for a fight
the blink of diamonds
in the night

Soon I packed my bags
Took off for the sun
Landed in Manhattan
there I learned to fly

I was just a girl
you were thirty-five
I tripped into your bed on night
You held on too tight

You thought you'd caught me
in your web
as I came whirling by
You cannot hold an idea
Place it between your thigh
But you can try

Fields of Blackberries
numb inside my tongue
I started to run
She stands brightly
ready for a fight
the blink of diamonds
in the night

I see the fear inside your eyes
Satin slips, bodies slide
The forest deep
dense with lies

She'll follow you
through jungle dreams
shred you to the bone
She'll take you to some paradise
But never back home

Fields of Blackberries
numb inside your tongue
You can always start to run
She stands brightly
ready for a fight
the blink of diamonds
in the night

Once I was afraid
Now I'm thirty-one
You ask me was it worth it
Child I've just begun
