Lyrics

[Verse 1] Gwen Barkley was as stubborn as could be Gwen Barkley had a different kind of hold on me She'd go and pretend I wasn't alive She's picking me up, oh, what a surprise, now I'm down She's winding me up around and around She knew I didn't swim so why'd she let me drown? [Chorus] Her hay day's over yeah Gone too fast with nothing left to say [Verse 2] An echo fell on her homes sweet war The weary folk, they didn't knock any more A shot and a swig alone and apart You can drink from the empty bottle of her heart She's winding me up around and around She knew I didn't swim so why'd she let me drown? [Chorus] Her days were numbered, yeah Gone too fast with nothing left to say I try to keep composure well A bed she made where now she will lay [Bridge] Oh Gwen, I didn't know What you said Or where you go You left me barefoot I mistook you for someone who would know [Chorus] Her hay day's over yeah Gone too fast with nothing left to say I try to keep composure well Here she lays, Gwen Barkley
