This Song is from my upcomming album, “Tea Green.” It’s a dark brooding number. I’ve included the lyrics below.
Sing your Songs

VERSE 1
You covered us with gold leaf baby
and sparkles from the moon
But with all the shine and polish, baby
we’re the darkest in the room
CHORUS
You ain’t gotta sing your songs in here
you ain’t gotta pull me by the ear
you ain’t gotta drown me with you tongue
and your body and your tears
you ain’t gotta stab me with you eye
you ain’t gotta hold me by the fly
you ain’t gotta hit me with you hand
and with your body and your mind
VERSE 2
you were the black satin dancer
moving with the mandolin
but with all the desperate breathing baby
we can’t go back again
CHORUS
VERSE 3
we got our ancient faces baby,
like two rain beaten stones
and the ripples hug the river baby
and they tap the closing tones
CHORUS
