The Born to Kills - I Lost My Baby at Tiananmen Square Lyrics

I got a fortune cookie this morning, what do you reckon it read
Got a fortune cookie this morning, what do you reckon it read
Said now hurry, hurry boy, that girl you love is dead

I lost my baby at Tiananmen Square
I just looked around for her and she was nowhere
And now I been looking and looking all summer long
Everybody here thinks they're right, goddamn I know that they're wrong

And we were scattered like stars on a field of blue
When the morning came it just broke right through
And I was stuck between the soldiers and the buildings and the burning cars
By the time I arrived there wasn't nothing left
But a bumper sticker said now, Free Tibet

And I lost my baby at Tiananmen Square
I just looked around for her and she was nowhere
And now I been looking and looking all summer long
Everybody here thinks they're right, I know that they're wrong

Yeah we were spreading out, we were forging ahead
We were burning like stars on a field of red
But now hurry home boy, that girl you knew is dead
Yeah hurry, hurry, that girl you knew is dead

I lost my baby at Tiananmen Square
I just looked around for her and she was nowhere
And now I been looking and looking all summer long
Everybody here thinks they're right, goddamn I know that they're wrong
