Sweet Adeline Lyrics

The song Sweet Adeline is performed by Elliott Smith in the album named XO in the year 1998 .



Cut this picture into you and me
Burn it backwards, kill this history
Make it over, make it stay away
Or hate'll say the ending that love started to say

There's a kid, a floor below me saying, "Brother can you spare?
Sunshine for a brother old man winter's in the air"
Walked me up a story asking how you are
Told me not to worry, you were just a shooting star

Sweet Adeline
Sweet Adeline
My Clementine
Sweet Adeline

It's a picture perfect evening and I'm staring down the sun
Fully loaded, deaf and dumb and done
Waiting for sedation to disconnect my head
Or any situation where I'm better off than dead
