Lungs
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


[Lungs lyrics on http://www.metrolyrics.com]Salvation sat and crossed herself

Called the devil partner

Wisdom burned upon a shelf

Who'll kill the raging cancer

Seal the river at it's 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
