"Drunkard's Prayer" lyrics
"Drunkard's Prayer"
You're my water
You're my wine
You're my whiskey
From time to time
You're the hunger
On my bones
All the nights
I sleep alone
Sweet intoxication
When your words
Wash over me
Whether or not
Your lips move
You speak to me
Like an ocean
Without waves
You're the movement
That I crave
And in that motion
I long to drown
And be lost not to be found
You're my water
You're my wine
You're my whiskey
From time to time

Rosie Thomas - "Let Myself Fall" I let myself fall
I let myself fall
I let myself fall
I let myself fall
In love with you
There's no turning back
There's no turning back
Since I let myself
Fall in love with you
Now I picture...
Mary Gauthier - "How You Learn To Live Alone" First you fall then you fly
And you believe that you belong up in the sky
Flap your arms as you run, every revolution
Brings you closer to the sun
You fall asleep in motion in uncharted hemispheres...
Robert Plant & Alison Krauss - "Trampled Rose" Long way going to get my medicine
Sky's the autumn grey of a lonely wren
Piano from a window played
Gone tomorrow, gone yesterday
I found it in the street, at first, I did not see
Lying at my feet,...
Patty Griffin - "Someone Else's Tomorrow" Have you ever been baptised
In the cool winter water
On a Sunday morning
When the sky was grey?
You filed out of the churchyard
So cold it was silver
To gold, tan and blue cars
And the cars drove...
