Johnny Red & the Prayerhouse People - Your Highness

Tonight a man falls down with his woman in his hands
And he speaks of his crime
At the Joshua Inn in the middle of the night
There's just silence and ghosts
I shot a man in the desert
And his face now is like stone in the middle of my chest
There's nothing you can do, babe,
But leave me fighting his Highness' eyes

Your Highness, keep looking in my eyes
Your Highness, keep looking in my eyes
'Cause nothing is alive no
Nothing is at stake now
There's just you and I

For seven days I marched 'round those city walls
Which shelter my home
I called for seven priests and seven trumpets
Split the air in a cry
But the destruction was outside
The walls they never came tumbling down
So you better come out of your gates
And fight me, you and I

Your Highness, keep looking in my eyes
Your Highness, keep looking in my eyes
'Cause nothing is alive no
Nothing is at stake now
There's just you and I
