Torch Singer |
These things crawl across my floor |
I can’t use them anymore |
There’s a heaven in her band |
Alleluias in my hand |
All my patience love’s inside |
She just climbed the stage and died |
Lights that rose and fell again |
Songs that thinned out near the end |
Oh, her voice trailed off in the end |
Though your miles are more than mine |
The things I’ve taken in a bind |
It’s for certain it’s for sure |
I’ve no use for them no more |
Making room within one’s self |
For another’s songs to help |
And it all comes back to me |
As I walk hungover down the street |
Oh, and it all comes back to me |
And it all comes back to me |
And it all comes back to me |
And it all comes back to me |
As I walk hungover down the street |
She’s a mother in disguise |
I look different in her skies |
But it’s morning so I say |
Here’s a big red letter day |
Her skin’s like whitewash like skim milk |
Her words sing softly just like silk |
There are some things I’ve got to say |
She won’t understand anyway |
There are miles between our hearts |
There’s salvation in false starts |
I’m forsaken in the end |
I’m forsaken in the end |
I’m forsaken in the end |
I’m forsaken in the end… |
