Even the Darkness Has Arms 歌詞
Even the Darkness Has Arms - The Barr Brothers
Lyrics by:Andrew Gilmore Barr/Philip Bradford Barr
Composed by:Philip Bradford Barr/Andrew Gilmore Barr
I was holding my breath
When the tightrope walker slipped into the moon glow
Saying all my children follow me
Maybe it's time to go
You can be chrome when you're wise
You can be wise when you're blue
And baby if I have
Then I have for you
Bribing the jury to keep me in jail singing
Tea for the Tillerman
And although I lie fantastically
I swore an oath on my history
It's a miracle I can see
You can be wrong when you're right
Even when you're right on cue
And if I die tonight
Then I die for you
Calling on those that call me son
Great-grandson and grandson
Great uncles aunts and relatives
To judge what I have done
Wanna make it right by you
Even if it's all I do
And if it's all I do
Then I do it for you
People will raise a whole lotta
Hell about the water in the windmill
And although I stab chaotically
It hurts no one but me
Even the darkness has arms
But they ain't got you
And baby I have it
And I have you too
And a light in the window to pass the night through
May be so uncertain but what can I do
Keeping it on keeping it on
And I know I like it but what does that prove
Sometimes I worry I don't know how to love you
I bring to you with reverent hands
All the books that my love abides
The kind woman that my passion wore
Like the shoreline wears the tides
Maybe the water went dry
Keeping an eye on you
And with an eye on you
It could drown me too
People will raise a whole lotta
Hell about the water in the windmill
And although I stab chaotically
I swore an oath on my history
It's a miracle I can see
Even the darkness has arms
But they ain't got you
And baby I have it
And I have you too
And a light in the window to pass the night through
May be so uncertain but what can I do
Keeping it on keeping it on
And I know I like it but what does that prove
Sometimes I worry I don't know how to love you
