don't get mad darlin
i didn't mean to do it to you
don't back off darlin
turn the lights way down low
and i will lay on your chest
and calm myself to the sounds of your body
the heart and the breath
i'm sorry darling to disappear on you
but flyin' to the States brought fear to my face
and i ran in my head just to keep myself safe
oh darlin i didn't mean to
i just forget how it goes
that i'm better off alone
in a town that i know than a bar
even though you're right next to me

CAD lullaby
04:12
|

lift up that bay door
turn on the radio
fuel in the gauge
steel sings the night away
hear that old swing shift dark lullaby
'cause that's the song you'll sing
all of your working life
all of the things
that you could be wondering
"she'll leave you tonight"
and you're the only one
who could stand to be that alone
'cause no girl knows how to wait
or what's worth waiting for
lay down a sheet
it's time that machine starts breaking down
you're tired as your hands
and that light can't find you now
hazel comes around to sing you a tune
or just the blues about misfortune
or just bad plain fucking luck

i wasn't redeemed in the eyes of the lord
i wasn't received in your eyes at all
and i don't believe in jesus christ
i don't believe in him at all
hell is a place i might like to try
the black hearts dance around the big bonfires
the spirit comes to me when i drink my wine
the spirit comes from the wild grape vine
heaven is a place i think i might like to try
heaven keeps her gates to the world open when
if i ever start to wonder what happens when we die
heaven's not the place that i see in my mind
i love the world and the world loves me
the trees and the dogs and snowy streets
the world is a place i think i like to be
a girl is someone i think i should meet

the leavin'
02:19
|
|||
all i have left are the books
you gave me
that i use to weigh down the bed
when you're gone
my heart is a box of coins
you collected
and then spilled in the street for someone
else to claim
is it harder to be the one
who does the leavin
or the one
who is always left behind
