Jackrabbits |
I was tired of being drunk |
My face cracked like a joke |
So I swung through here like a brace of jackrabbits |
With their necks all broke |
I stumbled at the door with my boot |
And I knocked against the jamb |
And I scrabbled at your chest like a mute |
With my fists of ham |
Trying to tell you that I am |
Telling you I can |
I can love you again |
Love you again |
I’m squinting towards the East |
My faith makes me a dope |
But you can take my hand in the darkness, darling |
Like a length of rope |
I shaped up overnight, you know |
The day after she died |
When I saw my heart, and I tell you, darling |
It was open wide |
What with telling you I am |
Telling you I can |
I can love you again |
Love you again |
And it can have no bounds, you know |
It can have no end |
You can take my hand in the darkness, darling |
When you need a friend |
And it can change in shape or form |
But never change in size |
Well, the water, it runs deep, my darling |
Where it don’t run wide |
The feather of a hawk was bound |
Bound around my neck |
A poultice made of fig |
The eager little vultures pecked |
And the verse I read in jest |
In Matthew spoke to me |
Said, there’s a flame that moves like a low-down pest |
That says, «you will be free» |
Only tell me that I can |
Tell me that I can |
I can love you again |
Love you again |
Love you again |
Love you again |
Love you again |
Love you again |
Love you again |
Love you again |
Love you again |
Love you again |
Love you again |
Love you |
