Lyrics for Lungs by LYLE LOVETT:
| | | Artist: | LYLE LOVETT |

Well won't you lend your lungs to me
Mine are collapsing
Plant my
feet and bitterly breathe
Up the time that's passing
And breath I'll take and breath I'll
give
And pray the day's not poison
Stand among the ones that live
In lonely
indecision
Fingers walk the darkness down
Mind is on the midnight
Gather up the
gold you've found
You fool it's only moonlight
And if you try to take it home
Your hands
will turn to butter
You better leave this dream alone
Try to find another
Salvation
sat and crossed herself
Called the devil partner
Wisdom burned upon a shelf
Who'll kill
the raging cancer
Seal the river at its mouth
Take the water prisoner
Fill the sky with
screams and cries
Bathe in fiery answers
Jesus was an only son
And love his only
concept
Strangers cry in foreign tongues
And dirty up the doorstep
And I for one and you
for two
Ain't got the time for outside
Just keep your injured looks to you
We'll tell
the world that we tried | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
