"Dallas Love Field" lyrics
"Dallas Love Field"
She sings of apple trees and blossoms
And she called me from Dallas Love Field
As the winter storm warning went on taunting me
When we met we were two bright eyed alcoholics
In the spring time in the year of our lord
As we glanced the gilded edges of our identities
Whatever the way
Of the lover's lot
Black as the kettle's the hypocrite pot
Often than more, more often than not
So come here baby
In the dark and out
Ridin' our bikes to the dive bar at the edge of town
Was it some shrill and false persona
That was leadin' me around?
Well my right hand offended me
But the left hand was waving free
Till it knocked me out
Did it? Did it? Did it? Did it?
Did it? Did it? Did it? Did it?
Crossed the street from the bar to the cathedral and we heard Vespers sung by the choir
And in ghostly vestments we waltzed down the aisle
To be honest babe, I never saw you comin' no
Though I did believe the world to be a starry dome
Did it, did it, did it, I
So maybe we take the longer way
To a cosmic home, a place to stay
Spinning lanterns in a field until the end of days
Whatever the way
Of the lover's lot
Black as the kettle's the hypocrite pot
Often than more, more often than not
So come here baby
In the darkening hour
Ridin' our bikes to the dive bar at the edge of town
Was it some shrill and false persona
That was leadin' me around?
Well my right hand offended me
But the left hand was waving free
Till it knocked me out
Did it? Did it? Did it? Did it?
Did it? Did it? Did it? Did it?
Well my right hand offended me
So I bent down on bended knee
And I cut it off
Did I? Did I? Did I?
Did I? Did I? Did I?

Houndmouth - "Sedona" The red sandstone, it fell
Right smack on top of Sedona Arabella
When John Ford said wont you hop on in
To the stage coach baby gonna take you for a spin, oh oh
Hey little Hollywood
You're gone but...
Vance Joy - "Call If You Need Me" I love you in the morning when the blood runs to your cheeks
Babe, you are the first thing and the last thing that I'd see
I was just a boy striking matches upon your heart
I couldn't get no sparks...
Lord Huron - "Wait By The River" I will wait by the river
In the light of the moon
At the edge of the city
I will wait for you
Though I can't wait forever
Someday I'll be dead and gone
And I won't be forgiven
For what I've done
I...
Blanco White - "Olalla" Oh, Olalla, more than a name
Rest your eyes, and stay in the shade
You were hidin' over the hill
In a quiet never so still
From Olalla to the city lights
Somebody told me to believe in better times...
Austin Basham - "All Is Well" I know what it is
But I'm hoping that all is well
No harvest of green
But it's still my heart to sell
I put everything I had
Into something that didn't grow
Like going on a wild hunt
Shooting arrows...
