the orange grove - milow lyrics
[intro]
oh, oh
[verse 1]
a pretty steel and coal town
in a quiet street
an ordinary brick home
with a number 33
growing up in these suburbs
myriam took a vow
that she and her brother
should try to change the here and now
[chorus]
for the promised land is why they drove
oh, to the orange grove
oh, to the orange grove
oh, to the orange grove
[verse 2]
falling into the wrong crowd
before the great divide
riding his motorcycle one night
is how her brother died
much later, fights with her parents
they told she had changed
also that a marriage
to h-ssan had been arranged
[chorus]
for the promised land is why they drove
oh, to the orange grove
oh, to the orange grove
oh, to the orange grove
[bridge]
she became a much older man’s wife
down the diyala river they would ride
oh, oh
[verse 3]
and from their tiny apartment
down in saint-gilles
in their white mercedes
just like bonnie and clyde
it’s how the story ended
in a smoking whirl
the headlines showed a picture
of a smiling western girl
[chorus]
for the promised land is why they drove
oh, to the orange grove
oh, to the orange grove
oh, to the orange grove
for the promised land is why they drove
oh, to the orange grove
oh, to the orange grove
oh, to the orange grove
