Lyrics for Morning Theft by Jeff Buckley:
| | | Artist: | Jeff Buckley |
| | Album: | Sketches (For My Sweetheart, The Drunk | | Track: | Morning Theft | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 90 | | | | Lyrics: | time takes care of the wound
or so i can believe
you had so much to give
i thought i
couldn't see
gifts for bootheels to crush
promises, deceit
i had to send it
away
to bring us back again
your eyes and body brighten
silent waters
deep
your precious daughter in the
other room asleep
a kiss goodnight from
every
stranger that i meet
i had to send it away
to bring us back
again
morning theft
unpretender left,
ungraceful...
true self is
what
brought you here to me
a place where we can
set this love
free
friendship battered down by
useless history
an exam in
failure
but what am i still to you
some thief who stole from you
or some fool
drama queen
whose chances were few?
love brings us to who we need
a place where
we can save
a heart that beats
as both siphon and reservoir
you're a woman, i'm
a calf
you're a window, i'm a knife
we come together
making chance into
starlight
meet me tomorrow night
or any day you want
i have no more right to
wonder
just how or when
and though the meaning fits
there's no relief in
this
i miss my beautiful friend
i had to send it away
to bring her back again | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
