We danced in the fields, in the pouring rain
Drank with the devil and forgot our names
Woke with him when the morning came
No one there to shame me for my youth
'Cause I couldn't be with you
Back then I found me a lover who could play with a blade
He's kinda shy, but his body ain't
Spend the days dreaming and the nights awake
Doin' things we knew we shouldn't do
'Cause I couldn't be with you
Says he can't believe I found him
Wraps his arms around me
Yeah-eah, eah-eah-eah-yeah
I can't let them in
They call me up and ask me how I've been
I'll call their bluff and
Keep on telling, telling, telling them lies
Keep on telling, telling, telling them lies
No, I can't let them in
They play me rough, but I won't let them in
So, call my bluff, I'll
Keep on telling, telling, telling them lies
Keep on telling, telling, telling them lies
Counting down to the day they may put things together
And I fell for a street-rat Jedi, my father knew
Lied and said the hover bike was in the "motor shop"
Flew the Phantom once and made the engine pop
Still we had some fun, till they walked in
'Cause I couldn't be with you
On 5 BBY, I met a boy named Ezra
Lied about his age, but I didn't care
Spoke in broken Mando'a but the heart was there
In those eyes of sky and ocean blue
'Cause I couldn't be with you
Says he can't believe I found him
Wraps his arms around me
Yeah-eah, eah-eah-eah-yeah
I can't let them in
They call me up and ask me how I've been
I'll call their bluff and
Keep on telling, telling, telling them lies
Keep on telling, telling, telling them lies
No, I can't let them in
They play me rough, but I won't let them in
So, call my bluff, I'll
Keep on telling, telling, telling them lies
Keep on telling, telling, telling them lies
Counting down to the day they may put things together
I'm counting dow-ow-ow-ow-own
I'm still so dow-ow-ow-ow-own
I'll come around
End Notes
In case it was not clear, "they" is the Ghost crew basically calling Sabine out on taking Ezra's
disappearance harder than everyone else.
Also, Ezra initially lying about his age in order to possibly further appeal to Sabine is my
personal head canon. So is Ezra trying to learn Mando'a in order to make a good impression
on her family, considering they would be hostile to him being a Jedi.
I tried to make the words fit the lyrics as much as I could but some things may not sound
seamless if you tried to sing it in your head.
