Song Lyrics

She hates how much it rains
But it's rainin' all the time
She said, "I'd like to go home, I don't feel right in these clothes,
And I might be losing my mind"

She said, "I'm always goin 'round, round and round in my head
I don't want to sleep alone, we ain't kids anymore, but the kids are alright, yeah."

And I've been at her majesty's pleasure
But I still haven't found a way to survive
And you say

"Don't you understand, I know what it's like to be a rolling stone?"
Haunted with heartbroken ghosts, and Elsie singin' "how does it feel?"
But oh, my Lily, if you only knew, I only want to be haunted by you
And I would crawl across the grass to bow at your feet in the service of the queen

She said, "I want to find a heart that breaks the same as mine
I'm much too young to stay feeling old in my frame sipping drinks about the good days"

And I've been at her majesty's pleasure
But I still haven't found a way to survive
And you say

"Don't you understand, I know what it's like to be a rolling stone?"
Haunted with heartbreaking ghosts, and Elsie singin' "how does it feel?"
But oh, my Lily, if you only knew, I only want to be haunted by you
And I would crawl across the grass to bow at your feet in the service of the queen

I'm always starting all over
I don't want to waste the nights in my life
But I never fit in, or felt home in my skin
I'm waiting on a big love, baby
I'm waiting on a big love, baby
I'm waiting on a big love, baby
I'm waiting on a big love, baby

And don't you understand, I know what it's like to be a rolling stone?
Haunted with heartbreaking ghosts, and you got Elsie singin' "how does it feel?"
But oh, my Lily, if you only knew! I only want to be haunted by you
And I would crawl across the grass to bow at your feet in the service of the queen
(I'm waiting on a big bomb, baby, I'm waiting on a big bomb, baby) in the service of the queen
(I'm waiting on a big bomb, baby, I'm waiting on a big bomb, baby) in the service of the queen
