Laura Veirs songs lyrics

Twenty days walking so lonely and talking to myself and the rocks And sand got me to thinking 'bout going and drinking in a tavern with a...

Sorry I was cruel, I was protecting myself Drifting along with my swords out flying Tattering my own cells and I tattered yours, too Took you and...

Clear as ice, oh clear as ice Dripping down from a rock Spring will come and so will fall All my enemies have finally fled They've finally fled...

I'm falling off the barstool mama in this old ghost town saloon Where sunlight moves like sadness across the room Oh my sweet mama if you could...

Watch, i can flash across the sky A lightning bolt from up on high And i can crash into myself Now a flower blooms in reverse And a song takes...

The yellow wind sends brambles through the dustThe tractor wheels won't turn for all the rust the corn has diedAnd dried upon the stalk her...

I was walking through the snow When I saw a distant glow Of a farmhouse nestled down beneath the trees With a guitar on my back I thought it sure...

Birds were falling from the sky all leaves had turned to brown The heartless cold froze everything and took my poor red down Poor old red she's...

Riptide pulls me out into the open sea My toes dangle for a place to stand and be Oh starry night come and chart a course Or send me a boat with...

The rose is not afraid to blossom Though it knows its pedals must fall And with its pedals fall seeds into soil Why toil to contain it all? ...

I'm a chimney sweeping man You see the black lines On the backs of my hands I planted all the gardens I sent off all the hand-typed letters ...

Oh midnight singer Outside my window Oh how your songs Come in strange and low And in my bed I lay silent Hoping you'd stay Hoping you'd...

Hear the whistle blow far off in the still night without stars see the tracks laid flat With a hammer's might they're the spike driver's scars...

My wooden vibrating mouth Sing me your lover's song Come with me we'll head up north Where the rivers run icy and strong The empty theater is...

Did you see that lady there they stripped her to her underwear She took it one step further and stripped to bare through the rising flames And...

The sky's a raven marching band black blizzard blowing across the land Come darling take my hand i'm whiskey poured into the sand Star...

Music in the air Plucked from the centuries Presented in the form Of a song by you to me Seagull in the air Floating on the updraft See me...

Light of the morning day Sadly it will not stay This perfect pink for too long couple of hours from now All the sunflowers will frown and turn ...

Been traveling all too long this bear-cat trail But the love in me's grown stronger than this steel rail That I ride back to your bedroom eyes ...

With photographs And magnetic tape We capture Pretty animals in cages Pretty flowers in vases Enraptured And doesn't the tree Write great...
