"Faithfully Dangerous" lyrics
"Faithfully Dangerous"
Your paint dries, the canvas smiles
With two eyes you lift yourself up
Stroke your skin, there are teeth marks to be sure
Maybe we're best close to the ground
Maybe angels drag us down
I wonder which part of this will leave the scar
Dip your hands in colours
While the young night flutters in on you
And finger paint me pictures of all you see
No matter what they say
You'll always be
Faithfully dangerous
Lost and lovely
So beautiful to me
I'm not too blind to see
Red is blood. Black is sky
White's the dove that longs to fly
You set it free and it beats its wings in me
It leaves us at a loss for words
Is that me now in your arms?
We cradle together and fall down on our knees
Let the whole world drift downstream
We'll always be different
Swim the silent slipstream inside of me
No matter what they say
You'll always be
Faithfully dangerous
Lost and lovely
So beautiful to me
I'm not too blind to see
Red is blood. Black is sky
White's the dove that longs to fly
You set it free and it beats its wings in me
It leaves us at a loss for words
Is that me now in your arms?
We cradle together and fall down on our knees
Dip your hands in colours
While the young night flutters in on you
And finger paint me pictures of all you see
No matter what they say
You'll always be
Faithfully dangerous
Lost and lovely
So beautiful to me
I'm not too blind to see
Red is blood. Black is sky
White's the dove that longs to fly
You set it free and it beats its wings in me
It leaves us at a loss for words
Is that me now in your arms?
The heart that beats is yours inside me
The heart that beats is yours inside me
The heart that beats is yours inside me
Red is love
Black is night
I'm drunk with angels taking flight
The heart that beats is yours inside me
The heart that beats is yours inside me
The heart that beats is yours inside me
The heart that beats is yours inside me
The heart that beats is yours inside me
The heart that beats is yours inside me
The heart that beats is yours inside me
The heart that beats is yours (inside me)

Edie Brickell - "Picture Perfect Morning" I haven't learned to say goodbye
Hello itself is hard enough
It kills to let a good thing die
And I don't want to see it go bad
Picture perfect morning
Just before the dawn
And city lights are...
10000 Maniacs - "Jezebel" To think of my task is chilling.
To know I was carefully building the mask I was wearing for two years, swearing I'd tear it off.
I've sat in the dark explaining to myself that I'm straining too...
Lucinda Williams - "Unsuffer Me" Unlock my love
And set me free
Come fill me up
With ecstasy
Surround my heartbeat
With your fingertips
Unbound my feet
Untie my wrists
Come in to my world
Of loneliness
And wickedness
And...
Neko Case - "Favorite" Oh lie
I thought you were golden
I thought you were wise
Caught you returning
To the house you caught fire
But I know that I was your favorite
And I said Amen
Wise, found favorin' heaven...
Beth Orton - "Anywhere" Paint what you know, not what you see
Hope blinds reason, thankfully
Know how it is when something fits
There's just a question of being it
I'd do anything to see you smile again
And I'd go anywhere...
