Big Spirit - Wild Mercury

Did anybody
Ever tell you
You look just like
An angel when you
Smile at me
Well, I believe
I can hardly see
The garbage from the flowers
I sleep so restlessly
So elegantly
We're useless you and I
Could never separate ya
From what is good
And what I got to lose

I guess it's somethin'
I could never
Get in front of
It keeps me looking
Back behind me
Another lonely year before
You sing and then it's gone

And they don't love you on the street

Did anybody
Ever tell you
Ya look just like
The actress when you
Cry to me
I dry your tears
You lead me here
Well can you lead me
Out so far away from he
I'll never be
An athlete in a tower
I speak so eloquently
So delicately
You say good-bye again

And they don't look you in the eye

And it seemed to me
A simple elegy
For the world
That died bravely
And I
Waited for you in the blue bayou
As the body of the tide swayed me
And I will forgo
All else to show
This image so defined, vaguely
When we receive the cost
Of our treasure lost
Well, how can I ever repay thee

So now we're somewhere
Down the rainbow
To where I can't go
Back to whistlin'
So, sweet nothings
Soft, sweet melodies
Sheer, sheet memories
Of distance and of loss
I can't keep going on like this
It's such a funny feeling now
Oh well
Well, it's been swell so
Hell, I guess I'll see you in the end
