"If She's Torn" lyrics
"If She's Torn"
If I could tell you now
Tell you how I feel
Is that so hard?
When it's all for you
There's so much to leave
There's so much to carry around
Gonna sit now
Gonna sit and watch the night fall
There's nothing more
It takes your breath away
It's all for you
There's so much to carry around
But if she's torn
Put another stitch for me
Give her what she needs and
Put another stitch for me
It doesn't even stir now
No more does it leave
It just performs
It cannot burst with joy
It just takes toil
Hard work and toil
I can't tell you how I feel
When all you've got is company
You're sweating now
It's pouring down your brow
There's nothing here at all
There's only you
There's so much to carry around
But if she's torn
Put another stitch for me
Give her what she needs and
Put another stitch for me
If I could tell you now
Tell you how I feel
I'm putting coin after coin
Just to hear you breath
There's so much to leave
There's so much to carry around
Can't feel any better now
Let your children crawl all over me
Like I need to prove I don't deserve you anyhow
There's so much to leave
There's so much to carry around
But if she's torn
Put another stitch for me
Give her what she needs and
Put another stitch for me

We're cutting a baby out

They were under her grand chandelier

And he pretended to be asleep
But underneath the blankets
Their legs linked like a chain

To say all that I want to say

Past the houses
I sang a song then I came
Back down the mountain
All the while, big moon above me
Old coyote, laughing at me
He went

I sang a song then I...
