Cleopatra - The Lumineers

Lyrics

words to study

I was Cleopatra, I was young and an actress

When you knelt by my mattress, and asked for my hand

But I was sad you asked it, as I laid in a black dress

With my father in a casket, I had no plans

And I left the footprints, the mud stained on the carpet

And it hardened like my heart did when you left town

But I must admit it, that I would marry you in an instant

Damn your wife, I'd be your mistress just to have you around

But I was late for this, late for that, late for the love of my life

And when I die alone, when I die alone, when I die I'll be on time
