"Spotlight" lyrics
"Spotlight"
Spotlight
Spotlit smile, over the moon
Gasp, at last, don't let me loose
You wore your long bright overcoat
Some sort of look
I'm supposed to know
Old man wailing children's tunes
He lost out for drunken youth
You know what's worthy, what is toast
You know it all I'm thinkin' so
There is a stillness in your stare
There is a wildness wondering there
Let me dive right in and look
You're bold and rare and I'm a crook
Two bob style, no room to boot
Sticky tables, tattered suits
The swan that swims in city streets
While pigeons pick forgotten feasts
Red haired lady talks in tongues
Fumbles notes of songs begun
Patience paves your way to me
While smoke holds moonlit mockery
There is a stillness in your stair
There is a wildness wondering there
Let me dive right in and look
You're bold and rare and I'm a crook
I go for miles
And miles
Good bye whisky
Morning's misty
One way ticket to death at 50
We're gonna leave this old damn thing behind
Hello Trixy
You're coming with me
One way ticket to hell, no, let's see
We're gonna leave this whole damn thing behind
We go for miles
And miles

Cut the cord
Leave me here
Suspended on a whim
Or maybe I'll get another drink in
Lose all sense of rhyme
And reason
And slow down my thinking
Blacken out the sun...

Blades of grass are upright daggers
Pilot speaks, announces solemnly:
"We've just lost another wing"
Then speed, altitude, local time, weather conditions

Devendra Banhart - "It's Not Always Funny" The touch of your eyes, putting on my shoes
Seems unaware
Shaves my wife's wig off, oh-whoa
Without a care, then plays with my hotel
Oh, well
Over and over, it's gonna be a drag
Something's in the...
Widowspeak - "Plum" Feel the bruising through the skin
It won't go back to being green again
Try to hold on to what was sweet
Where the softness used to be
I feel nothing, I feel dumb
You're a peach and I'm a plum...
Andy Shauf - "Living Room" Claire stands beside us, she is ordering a drink, she says hello to us.
Charlie says hi and asks about her boy, she says he's fine and there's a pause.
