althea (live at hartford civic center, october 14, 1983) - the grateful dead lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i told althea i was feeling lost
lacking in some direction
althea told me upon scrutiny
that my back might need protection
i told althea that treachery
was tearing me limb from limb
althea told me, “now, cool down, boy
settle down easy, jim”

[instrumental break]

[verse 2]
you may be sat*rday’s child all grown
moving with a pinch of grace
you may be a clown in the burying ground
just another pretty face
you may be the fate of ophelia
sleeping and perchance to dream
honest to the point of recklessness
self*centered to the extreme
[instrumental break]

[verse 3]
n0body messing with you but you
your friends are getting most concerned
loose with the truth, maybe it’s your fire
baby i hope you don’t get burned
when the smoke has cleared, she said
that’s what she said to me
gonna want a bed to lay your head
and a little sympathy

[instrumental break]

[verse 4]
there are things we can replace
and others we cannot
the time has come to weigh those things
this sp*ce is getting hot
you know this sp*ce is getting hot

[instrumental break]

[verse 5]
i told althea i’m a roving sign
i was born to be a bachelor
althea told me: “okay, that’s fine”
you know i’m out trying to catch her
can’t talk to you without talking to me
we’re guilty of the same old thing
thinking a lot about less and less
and forgetting the love we bring
[instrumental]
