The Angel Of 8th Ave.
(专辑: Total Serene - 2021)
So we got straight to the
heart And I
was a
coward and worse to my shame And fell hard upon the
weightless weeks And wasted every day Till you emerged in the
park Like some patron of Washington Square For the
first time in a
long time Inside everything stood clear So went out to find me a
job But I
didn't think I
would hold this one down It gives the
same old sinking feeling Of fucking hammers in my bowels But you are good to me still And when my old man was near to the
end You loved his broken body In the
same way that I
did I
wanna lay me down and be lover of the
year In this strange new town, this strange hemisphere God, it was state of the
art You called each of my sorrows by name And a
tide of tender mercies shook my body from the
grave And in the
festival years Of our makeshift parade In perpetual fall And immeasurable rain I
wanna see this one out And I
wanna join the
impossible swing And fall hard beside you Screaming at the
bowels of everything And in the
Islington morn You're the
angel of 8th And what's more, the
goddamn greatest thing That Laney ever made I
wanna lay me down and be lover of the
year And in this strange new town, this strange hemisphere You persuade me now to look closer in the
mirror And I
wanna lay me down for years and years and years and years Ah, there's heaven in you now Ah, there's heaven in you now Ah, there's heaven in you now Ah, there's heaven in you now There is heaven in you now Ah, there's heaven in you now Ah, there's heaven in you now Ah, there's heaven in you now There is heaven in you now Ah, there's heaven in you now Ah, there's heaven in you now Ah, there's heaven in you now Ah, there's heaven in you now There is heaven in you now Now, now
